A family farm that is 5 generations strong raising some of the most mouth watering beef this side of the Mississippi!</p>
<p>We have all cuts&nbsp;available for purchase at both the farm and at several farmer's markets around the Quad City area.&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Latest News: Congrats to Congrats to Norman, Neal and Sawyer Beef for winning the Prescribed Grazing Award!</strong></p>
<p>"With the assistance of EQIP, the Sawyers have installed over 18,000 feet of water pipeline, 23 watering facilities and almost 20,000 feet of fence to establish the paddocks they use when rotating the cattle. They have also converted or enhanced their forage base on more than190 acres of their operation.&nbsp;<br /><br />The Sawyers use the animals as the machines or resources to work the land. They can gain financially because they are using less iron and no chemical fertilizer and fewer fossil fuels. With this system, better grasses develop deeper root systems and more diverse plant species, which translates to higher quality forages for the cattle." via (<a href="http://northscottpress.com/main.asp?SectionID=17&amp;subsectionID=66&amp;articleID=9124">North Scott Press</a>)</p>
