Grassfed Beef FAQ: How We Raise Cattle at Tyner Pond Farm

At Tyner Pond Farm, customers often ask how our grassfed beef is raised and what makes it different. We put together this FAQ to answer the most common questions about our farming practices, our grazing system, and why nutrient-dense food starts with healthy soil.

How is grassfed beef raised at Tyner Pond Farm?

Our cattle are 100% grassfed and moved frequently across fresh pasture. This system mimics the natural movement of wild herds, giving animals constant access to new forage while allowing pastures time to rest and regrow. It’s a cycle that supports animal health, soil health, and nutrition all at once.

What is regenerative grazing?

Regenerative grazing is a way of managing livestock that improves the land instead of depleting it. By rotating cattle through planned paddocks, we build soil organic matter, increase plant diversity, and strengthen the entire ecosystem. At the same time, it produces more nutrient-dense beef for your family.

Why do you use tools like reels and measuring wheels?

The tools may be simple, but the system is sophisticated. Reels and step-in posts let us set up temporary paddocks, while the measuring wheel helps calculate paddock size based on forage density, herd weight, and the time cattle will spend in a paddock. Movement isn’t random — every decision is based on balancing animal nutrition with land recovery.

What makes grassfed beef healthier?

Compared to grain-fed beef, grassfed beef contains higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), and vitamins like A, D, and K2. Because our cattle are never fed grain, antibiotics, or given vaccines, the beef you buy from us is naturally nutrient-dense and raised in harmony with the land.

Do you deliver grassfed beef in Indiana?

Yes. We offer free delivery across Indiana. Most of our customers order on a two-week cycle to keep their freezers stocked with grassfed beef, pasture-raised chicken, and more.

Final Thoughts

Raising grassfed beef in Indiana isn’t about doing things the easy way — it’s about doing things the right way. Regenerative grazing takes careful planning, daily effort, and a commitment to both the animals and the land. We’re proud to raise food this way, and we’re grateful for every customer who supports local farms.
