When choosing the right beef animals for your farm or ranch
Think Sawyer Creek Genetics
Rolling green pastures, wide-open skies, the smell of fresh-cut hay—here is where we raise newborn calves, support healthy heifers and steers, and work hard to bring you the best meats. Our family-owned and operated farm and ranch focuses on humane practices, regenerative agriculture, and positively impacting our animals, the environment, and our community. With a passion for what we do, we're proud to serve the people of Shell Lake Wisconsin and surrounding areas with premium quality grass fed beef with healthier, tastier options.
We use an approach called MIRG, or Management Intensive Rotational Grazing for our Grass Fed Beef. We move our cattle at the farm and ranch and give them access to specific parts of the pasture every set number of days based on their nutritional needs. Doing so not only maximizes their diet quality but makes them easier to manage, results in less waste, and increases the soil fertility of our land in Shell Lake and Hayward. It also improves air and water quality and has a positive impact on the overall environment. We use this practice to further provide the healthiest option for our meats and to utilize the land available to its fullest potential without inundating the soils with synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.
Our premium quality meats come from our premium quality Red Angus cattle. We specialize in optimizing breeding practices and producing top-quality cattle for ourselves and other small farms in Northwestern Wisconsin. Each year, we also partner with local farmers to help provide the best available breeding genetics at the best prices.
