Strauss Brands, a Franklin, WI-based company announced in September that it wants to expand its pre-certified network of 100 percent grass-fed and grass-finished beef producers in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions.
Program-qualified cattle must be 100 percent grass fed and grass finished, raised without the use of antibiotics or growth-promoting hormones, have English-based genetics (with a preference for Angus, Red Angus, and Hereford crosses).
Market-ready cattle must be 30 months and younger. Strauss Brands is a bonded Packers and Stockyards buyer and is currently seeking year-round deliveries for local processing in the Northeast.
