Graze: verb
• (of cattle, sheep, etc.) eat grass in a field.
"cattle graze on the open meadows"

While trying to come up with a name for Graze, our VERY Spoiled Black Angus cattle kept popping up in my head.

Our cattle mean the world to us and they keep our family together. In the early months of spring it is calving season, my favorite! Our momma cows are in a new barn, where there are cameras installed to monitor them around the clock. This creates lots of sleepless nights patiently awaiting the new calves. As soon as a calf is born (all hours of the night and day) we head over to the hoop building and bring the baby and cow in the nursery barn, where they will stay for about a week until we know they are thriving and then they will go back out to the main hoop building. These couple of months are very long and difficult, but so very worth it! During this time the moms get fed a special silage ration, high quality hay and vitamins/ minerals to help stay healthy during pregnancy and nursing.

In the summer the cows all get kicked out to the pasture where they GRAZE, cool off in the creek, lay under the shades and the calves have milk faces from nursing (picture below)! This is also the season we make our hay for them.

During the fall we wean the calves from the cows and make silage for them out of our corn. Also, during the fall is when the vet and hoof trimmers come to make sure all of our cattle are staying healthy. Each cow, calf and our bulls get individually looked over and lots of bookkeeping is done at this time.

The list could go on and on about everything we do for our cattle and what they ultimately do for us, but I tried to keep it short and sweet.

GRAZE kept extra cattle back this year to have fresh meat for sale comming fall 2025 that we will have for sale at our new STORE FRONT coming spring 2025! 💚
