Grassfed beef has a remarkably higher micronutrient profile compared to grain-fed beef. Sunrise Ranch cattle are naturally raised in a safe, humane and environmentally sustainable way.
Our philosophy is that healthy animals produce healthy beef.Sunrise Ranch beef is 100 percent grassfed. It’s low in fat and high in Omega-3 fatty acids, beta-carotene and vitamin E.
Our 100 percent grassfed beef is:
grassfed and grass-finished. No grain, ever!
locally raised in Loveland, Colorado
rotationally grazed
natural—no antibiotics or added hormones
humanely produced and handled
processed locally in a small, family-owned USDA-inspected facility

Sunrise Ranch sheep are naturally raised in a safe, humane and environmentally sustainable way. Our philosophy is that healthy animals produce healthy meat. We practice only stress-free handling techniques with our livestock. Our herd grazes on non-sprayed pastures using a system known as rotational grazing.
During the summer months, ewes, lambs and rams are moved frequently and enjoy the company of their alpaca and llama guardians. Our sheep are able to eat grass and grass hay from our valley and mountain pasture until they are content.
Our sheep are fed only grass from our pastures and a grass/alfalfa mix hay that we produce or buy from a farm in our valley. Our pastures have never been sprayed with chemical fertilizers or pesticides. The only natural supplement our sheep receive is continuous access to salt.
At Sunrise Ranch, we have almost 15,000 square feet of greenhouse space. We start our own seedlings in our greenhouses. And our fruits and vegetables are grown on 5 acres that have been maintained with compost and manure since 1945. Our fields have never had any kind of chemicals on them.
We rotate our vegetable patch with annuals, pasture and fallow to ensure proper health of our soil. You can read more about our greenhouses and gardens here.
