Barney Creek Livestock

Introduction

Barney Creek Livestock is a family-operated ranch in Paradise Valley that specializes in 100% Grass Fed Beef raised holistically. With deep roots dating back to 1900, Barney Creek Livestock is committed to Regenerative Agriculture and ensuring the well-being of their cows, the land, and their customers.

Healthy Soil: The Foundation of Regenerative Agriculture

Healthy soil is the backbone of Barney Creek Livestock's operations. By managing their animals to support plant life, they create a cycle that promotes organic matter and moisture retention in the soil. This approach not only benefits the soil's health but also contributes to plant growth and overall ecosystem stability.

Nurturing Healthy Plants

The grass and forages at Barney Creek Livestock are a direct reflection of soil health. Through careful management and daily rotation of their cattle, they maximize plant recovery and create a balanced ecosystem. By allowing the cows to graze both desirable vegetation and weeds, they ensure the protection of the soil while promoting moisture retention and preventing erosion.

Prioritizing Livestock Health

Barney Creek Livestock takes pride in providing their cows with the best food value and nutrients. Their cows are finished on a diet of grass, legumes, forbs, and more, ensuring that all the nutrients obtained from the soil end up in the beef. By utilizing low-stress livestock handling techniques and mimicking nature's calving patterns, they create nutrient-rich foods that contribute to the well-being of their customers.

A Focus on Human Health

While grass may not be digestible for humans, Barney Creek Livestock's management practices ensure that customers receive the best quality beef that is rich in nutrients. By prioritizing the health and well-being of their cows, they ensure that the benefits of managing soil life translate into the final product that consumers enjoy.

Regenerative Land Management Principles

Barney Creek Livestock follows a holistic approach to regenerative agriculture, aiming to transform the local food system. Their principles revolve around soil health, forage health, livestock health, and ultimately, human health.
