The REAL burger of Earth Day
is a 100% grass-fed beef burger raised regeneratively by farmers you know and trust.
For the second year in a row, we are partnering with the nationwide Real Burger of Earth Day campaign to celebrate the exceptional taste and climate positive impact of ethically raised 100% grass-fed beef.
What makes 100% grass-fed beef the real burger of Earth Day?
The key is rotational grazing, which results in:

Carbon SequestrationClick to learn more
Carbon SequestrationClick to learn moreWhen plants are grazed then allowed to rest, they grow deeper roots and more vegetation using carbon, which they take from the atmosphere and put back into the soil.
This process is called "carbon sequestration". It is the opposite of releasing carbon into the atmosphere, which happens with tilling and other soil disturbing practices.
Soil HealthClick to learn more
Soil HealthClick to learn moreAs the cattle move through a paddock, they eat, poop, and trample the grass. After they leave, the soil microorganisms get to work breaking it all down into usable nutrients for the plants to use and grow back even better.
As plants grow back, their expanding roots help stabilize and hold the soil in place, which prevents erosion, protects the soil from harsh temperatures, makes channels for water to soak in, and improves the overall health of the soil.
Clean WaterClick to learn more
Clean WaterClick to learn moreHaving constant plant cover (even if it's grazed) helps prevent erosion during heavy rainfall events and allows the water to slowly seep into the ground. As it soaks, different plants help clean and purify it on its journey to become groundwater.
The cattle's manure is not concentrated, so the soil can easily break it down for the plants to utilize.
Wildlife HabitatClick to learn more
Wildlife HabitatClick to learn morePerennial pastures replicate native grasslands and savannas, which create opportunity for native plants and animals (especially pollinators) to return to the land.
Rotational grazing allows the cattle to share the land and coexist with native nesting birds, essential pollinators, small and large mammals, native frogs, and more.
We've seen bobolinks, leopard frogs, and even migrating monarchs find refuge and habitat in our pastures since we started rotational grazing years ago.
Animal WelfareClick to learn more
Animal WelfareClick to learn moreCattle are ruminants, which means they are designed to digest grass, not grain. Cattle raised outside on pasture are healthier and happier living life as they naturally would.
The constant movement of cattle to new paddocks keeps them moving away from their waste, where disease and pests tend to harbor. This, plus green grass, fresh air, and abundant space keeps the cattle healthy, naturally, without the use of drugs.
What is rotational grazing?
Rotational grazing is the key to a climate conscious 100% grass-fed beef burger. It's not enough to only feed the cattle grass, but to really have a planet positive impact with your beef, the cattle must be managed in a way that enhances the ecosystem and builds soil health.

Not only is the Real Burger of Earth Day good for the planet,
but it's incredibly delicious, too.
Take a look at what others have to say about our 100% grass-fed beef.
Great quality meat! I was looking for a source to buy grass fed meat for a reasonable price and very glad I found this farm! Very nice people as well. Highly recommend!
Nick C. The Riemer's pasture raised, grass fed meat products are the best. There is a taste difference and their service gets you the meat in a timely manner. Delivery is easy...and it is always nice to take a road trip to the farm.
Rich T. We have been ordering from Riemer Family Farm for two years and every order comes correct and safe. The meat is amazing and their variety packs give us a chance to try new recipes and cuts of meat. We especially love the steaks, brats, and ground beef. Appreciate their passion for the animals, land, and providing safe, healthy food.
Michelle S. Delivery was very easy and prompt! The quality of the meat is fantastic. There are only two of us at home, so I love that we can buy meat from a family farm in reasonable quantities. Highly recommend!
