On the fertile plains of the Snoqualmie and Snohomish
river valleys is where our animals graze. Cascade Range Beef raises beef cattle in a
most humane and natural way, so the animals are in an environment that allows them
to roam freely. Our ranches are in a pastoral, rural setting, yet are still close enough to
the greater Seattle and Puget Sound area to serve a metropolitan customer base.
Breeds
Most of the cattle that we raise are Red Angus—a breed that thrives in this climate, that
is easy to handle on the range, and that yields a high-quality meat for your dinner table.
We also raise some Hereford and Black Angus.
Harvesting
At Cascade Range Beef, we do not wait until the fall months to butcher. We begin
butchering in the spring months, when the pasture grasses are new and fresh. This
early harvest yields a beef that has been finished on the lush spring grasses that are so
full of nutrients such as vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids. Our harvesting continues
through the year, when we generally wrap up in December.
For customers who need beef during the off-season, we are able to supply
beef then, as well. Beef harvested in the winter usually will have been
supplemented by hay--which is merely dried grass.
