Basket Flat Ranch cattle enjoy eating a "salad bar" of red and white clover, orchard and rye grass, and other native grasses. Their diet does not include any grain and calves are nurtured on their mother's milk. The cows are regularly rotated into a new sections of pasture to optimize the growth and nutrition of the grass. When we have an especially dry Summer, and during the cold Winter months, we supplement their pasture grazing, with highly nutritious, locally grown, clover and grass hay.
