Paradise Prairie Farm

If you are in Nebraska and looking for grass-fed and finished beef, we are taking orders for quarters that will be ready in a couple of weeks. Just email us at [email protected] for more information.

Taking orders for beef quarters available November of this year. Contact us if you are interested. Gentle black angus, grass fed and finished. No drugs or antibiotics, all naturally cared for. Limited supply, so don't delay if you are interested!

The Aronia Berries are ready to pick.
If anyone would like some please let me know. They are sparse due to the hail we had so it takes longer to pick them. Just bring something to trade and I won't charge anything. They are so good for you! PLEASE contact me before you come, so I can show you where to pick.

We will have grass fed and finished beef available by the quarter or half in just a couple of weeks. If anyone is interested, please send a message or email at [email protected]

Adding the Astaxanthin Factor…

Astaxanthin is a fat-soluble carotenoid with a unique molecular structure.Astaxanthin is one of the most powerful lipophilic antioxidants yet discovered … .
Astaxanthin embeds itself in cellular membranes. It is unique among carotenoids because it traps free radicals at both ends of the molecule.* Once trapped, free radicals are passed into cellular fluids where they become neutralized by vitamin C.
Ten Times Stronger Than Other Antioxidants
• It is one of the most powerful biological antioxidants known and shows strong free radical scavenging activity.* .....staxanthin is 550 times more effective at scavenging free radicals than vitamin E.
• Studies comparing astaxanthin to other carotenoids have shown that it possesses antioxidant activity up to 10 times stronger than that of beta-carotene, canthaxanthin, lutein, and zeaxanthin.
Protects Against Oxidation*
• Not only is astaxanthin a powerful free radical scavenger for your muscles, but it can also protect against oxidation, which limits the number of free radicals produced by your body.*
• It is sometimes referred to as a “booster” for common antioxidants like vitamins A, C, and E.
Astaxanthin supports joint health and flexibility and
a healthy immune response* this

Aronia berries are ripening fast! The crop looks great so far. This superior berry is so high in nutrients that just a few a day can add healthy benefits. I will post a recent Dr. Mercola article for those of you interested in some science on Astaxanthins. Aronia is chock full of these!

Aronia berries are ripe and ready to pick! $2 pound when you pick your own. By appointment please. These make excellent jam, wine, and can be frozen or made into juice for adding to your smoothies. Text 402-890-7277 or message us to set up a time!

From Mercola.com "Perhaps the most important caveat when making broth, whether you're using chicken or beef, is to make sure the bones are from organically raised, pastured or grass-fed animals. As noted by Sally Fallon, chickens (and beef) raised in concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) tend to produce stock that doesn't gel, so you'll be missing out on some of the most nourishing ingredients if you use non-organic bones.

Let us know if you'd like to place an order for bones, or order them with your next quarter of beef!

Is Bone Broth the New Superfood? Bone broth contains a variety of valuable nutrients of which many Americans are lacking, in a form your body can easily absorb and use.

We just moved them to a new winter pasture - grass left from last fall. They love it! They didn't even come up to eat the hay bales we left out for them this evening.

We appreciate all the inquiries we've been getting on beef quarters. But the guys aren't growing very fast. Generally grass fed beef takes 24-30 months, but we've been able to finish sooner sometimes. These fellows aren't in a big hurry, and they won't be 2 years old until early summer. We are hoping for April, if we get an early spring to help fatten them up.

Finally someone is talking about this! "Most notably, as reported by Reuters,2 the USDA does not test for one of the most pervasive and one of the most harmful agricultural chemicals of all, namely glyphosate" (or "Roundup" as the brand is called). 15 years, used on so many crops we eat, and not tested?

USDA Claims Pesticide Residues in Food Is Safe Glyphosate damages your gut flora and causes chronic diseases, but why does more than half of the food last year have detectable levels of pesticide residues?

A small herd, but tight knit - they always go together, and get distressed if one is separated. Enjoying perfect weather today - not too hot nor too cold for them!
