No Feedlots. Ever.
The humane treatment and 100% grass-fed, grass-finished diet of our cattle are fundamental to everything we do. That’s why our practices —and those of all the folks we partner with —meet the highest standards of animal welfare. Sometimes we even exceed them!
Going beyond even Certified Humane standards, all our cattle spend their entire lives on pasture, and never see a feedlot (no matter how humanely designed it is). We believe that cattle were meant to roam freely, not cram into pens.

Teton Waters Ranch is 100% Certified Humane and always goes beyond the standards everyday. Simply because it is the right thing to do.

Certified Humane: The Gold Standard
Humane Farm Animal Care (HFAC) is a leading nonprofit organization whose mission is to improve the lives of animals in farm production. Our 100% grass-fed, grass-finished ranches all meet HFAC’s rigorous standards and regularly pass their thorough inspection processes.
The “Certified Humane Raised and Handled” label on our beef is your guarantee that we practice what we preach when it comes to humane animal care —from the food our animals eat to the monitoring and gentle handling they receive. (And stay tuned! We aim to have all the cheese we source Certified Humane as well.)
Shop With Your Heart®
The Certified Humane certification designates that we ensure animals are always treated responsibly. This designation has earned Teton Waters Ranch recognition in the ASPCA’s Shop With Your Heart program.
