Our goal is to provide Minnesotans with a better beef experience through improved taste, texture, nutrition, and value. A better kind of beef - The Scottish Highland breed has been left relatively unchanged for hundreds of years. They are not animals designed for feedlot fattening. They excel at converting grass to high quality meat. Scottish Highland beef has been shown to be lower in cholesterol and fat than conventionally raised commercial breeds.
