Our Beef

Oregon Country Non GMO Beef
In 1976, ranchers Doc and Connie Hatfield knew at that place had to be a better way to deliver the naturally raised beef products that consumers wanted, and a ameliorate fashion for ranchers to remain economically and environmentally sustainable.

In 1986, they began working with a grouping of their ranching neighbors to produce naturally raised beef for the market place. The group agreed to form the consumer driven beef marketing cooperative — Oregon State Beef, which originally was comprised of 14 ranching families.

Oregon Country Beef is Non-GMO Project Verified.  To achieve this verification each cooperative rancher providing Oregon Country beefiness is required to follow rigorous standards to feed cattle consistent to the standards of the Non-GMO Project.  Each stage in the beef production including finishing facilities and packing plants are too required to comply with the standard.  we are very proud to present our customers with a production with this high standard.
