About Us
Our Great Plains ranch is rooted in honest farming, raising livestock in a stress-free environment to deliver nutritious, healing and healthy products. We’re putting real food back on your table with our pasture-raised, hormone-free and antibiotic-free meat.
At Grassroots Ranch, we’re steadfast in our mission to see the fullness of life manifest in every foot of soil, every creature that walks on it, every steward that cares for it, and every customer that feasts from it.
We’re serious about honoring nature’s systems, focusing on ethical, sustainable, and regenerative agriculture practices. While this isn’t the cheap or easy way, we believe it’s the right way. Our approach actively works to redeem Oklahoma’s rich, native grasslands and keep animals healthy and happy all while giving you flavorful, naturally-raised meat.

Practices
*Our pastured, free-range chickens are truly raised on grass. Moved to fresh pasture daily, our chickens forage for seeds, grass, and bugs, creating meat that is more flavorful and healthier than conventional chicken.
Looking for cage-free chicken or free-range chicken? Pasture-raised chicken is what you're really looking for.
At our farm, chicks are only kept inside our brooder house long enough for them to grow feathers and keep themselves warm, then we move them out to pasture where they are REALLY free-range and 100% pasture-raised. They're rotated every single day in their large, protective pens so they always have fresh grass and bugs, safe from predators in low-stress living conditions.
Our chickens get to feel sunshine on their feathers and grass beneath their feet. Moving them across our fields organically fertilizes the grass and builds valuable topsoil as they go, helping wildly improve our grasslands. This provides better grass for our cattle, who then graze and trample the grass down to make way for our chickens again — an example of beneficial symbiosis between the animals in our farm ecosystem. Their forage is supplemented with 100% GMO-free feed, suited for their omnivorous diets. Antibiotic-free. Hormone-free. Always.
*Our forested pigs spend their days foraging our native pecan grove for nuts, berries, mushrooms, and grass. This environment produces savory pork packed with more vitamins and nutrients than traditional pork. Grocery stores only offer one type of pork: conventionally raised inside on slat floors. You're just not going to see any pastured pork, forested pork, or pannage pork lining supermarket shelves. If you want to know what pork is supposed to taste like, you're going to have to try our pork. (Spoiler alert: it's not dry and flavorless, and it's NOT the other white meat.)
Our pork is forest-raised on our farm under the canopy of 160 acres of pecan grove where they have access to nuts, berries, mushrooms, roots, grass, and leaves. To promote a balanced, omnivorous diet, we supplement their natural forage with a GMO-free feed offered on a free-choice basis.
Our pigs are humanely treated and we never limit their ability to indulge their natural pig instincts like rooting up the earth, clearing our grove of small saplings and thorns, and exploring. They never receive any hormones or antibiotics. They are herded, sorted, and loaded in a low-stress manner and processed by a USDA-inspected facility owned and operated by the Quapaw Indian Nation. Their facility is pristine and has even gone through the lengths to become humanely certified by Temple Grandin herself, the pioneer of humane livestock handling.
The result is pork that is bright red and well-marbled like a prime steak, with an insulating cap of healthy fat that is firm-but-buttery, packed with healing vitamins and nutrients, and sure to keep from drying out during any type of cooking. You won't believe it until you see it.
