While they may sound the same, the difference is that “Pasture Raised” means all of our cattle live on pastures 100% of their lives.  Additionally, as stated previously, we supplement with small grains while finishing in grass pastures. “Grass Fed” does NOT necessarily mean they live on pastures for their whole lives but requires that they finish on “Forage” alone. For Instance: Below are three examples of labels that state “Grass Fed” and satisfy the requirements for meat to labeled as such: The animal may have lived in a feed lot and been fed “Forage” for their whole life, orThe animal could be fed corn or soy in a feedlot, as long as it has been “finished” for the last 120 days on grass, orThe animal could be raised in pasture with some grass and some grain such as corn or soy, and then “finished” for its last 120 days in a feed lot with just grass. Thus, if you want truly grass fed cattle, the label should say “Grass Fed, Grass Finished”, which would mean the animals are raised in grass pastures for 100% of their lives; never in a feedlot!
