Producing grass-fed, pasture-raised meat, free of sub-therapeutic antibiotics and growth hormones, using sustainable and humane methods, is more than a corporate initiative, it’s a way of life for Silver Fern farmers. New Zealand’s nutrient-rich grass produces natural marbling and gives a fine, delicate texture. Silver Fern Farms’ grass-based system optimizes natural resources and uses low-intensity farming practices to minimize environmental impact. The Silver Fern Farms Eating Quality (EQ) System® is a science-backed grading process that guarantees a better eating experience.
