Buying healthy food shouldn't be confusing or hard.

At Modern Pastures, we believe meat is the best food for nutrition and can be good for the environment when raised right. As populations become more urbanized, we are less connected to agriculture and the massive benefits grazing livestock play in human and environmental health.

At Modern Pastures, we make it easy to know where and how your meat is raised.

  • Our farmers improve their soil and land.
  • Animal welfare is carefully managed.
  • Federally inspected meats maximize food safety.
  • Efficient supply chains deliver your food.
  • Conveniently buy your favourite meat boxes regularly from our excellent farmers.

  • Efficient delivery to your door at a scheduled time, often same day.

  • Enjoy nutritious meals while making a positive difference.

What makes our meat different

Pasture-raised with modern benefits

Beyond simple claims

Too often, current meat marketing focuses on what producers are not using. Instead, we embrace transparency about how modern farming tools, including carefully managed pharmaceutical and technological solutions, can support animal well-being and environmental sustainability. We use ruminate agriculture for land stewardship and a thriving biodiversity, managed with intention.

We focus on meat from ruminants

ru·mi·nant

A hoofed mammal that chews the cud regurgitated from its rumen. Cattle, sheep and bison, among others.

Ruminants have evolved to be uniquely capable at converting minimally nutritious plant matter into high-quality protein and nutrient-dense food for humans. Well-managed ruminant agriculture holds a key to ecological diversity and positive environmental and human health outcomes.-
