Alderspring Ranch Beef Featured in Globe and Mail Food Writer Ian Brown, when tasting our ribeye just after a Japanese wagyu: “The wagyu, however rich, was as good a steak as I have ever eaten. But the grass fed rib-eye is a revelation…The Idaho steak has the middle, the robustness of the wagyu, but without the fattiness; it also tastes, unmistakably, like beef…The complexity of the grass fed steak becomes greater, not less, with each chew.”
-The Globe and Mail, 2010

Celebrated author Mark Schatzker traveled the world looking for the best beef. He found it at Alderspring Ranch.

Inherding: Alderspring’s Sustainable Approach to Grass Fed

Inherding and Sustainability Organic Grass Fed Beef at Alderspring RanchAt Alderspring, we are pioneering a new approach we call “Inherding.” With inherding, we graze our cattle over 48,000 unfenced acres of mountain range. The cattle graze a diversity of wild Idaho plants, resulting in beef that is both exceptional tasting and incredibly nutrient-dense. We live with the cows in high mountain cow camps, herding them during the day and bedding them down at night. This enables us to monitor where the cattle are at all times and avoid sensitive areas such as endangered species habitats while returning the ecosystem to what it was when bison roamed these mountains. Click here to learn more about inherding! 

 

What Makes Alderspring Different?

The organic certification is the most inspected and regulated health label there is. It is our guarantee that customers can be sure they're getting a truly exceptional product.

Alderspring Ranch is Certified Organic and 100% Grass Fed and finished
Grass fed health benefits include omega 3 fatty acids, vitamins, and more CLA. We go beyond typical grass fed standards by grazing on diverse wild mountain meadows.

Hormone and antibiotic free beef at Alderspring Ranch organic grass fed beef
We never use hormones or antibiotics on our cattle. If a cow is sick and needs antibiotics, we treat it humanely but do not sell that beef in our online store.

We never, ever allow GMOs on our ranch. In fact, we do the opposite by grazing on wild and native rangeland grasses.
