Marvin and Erica Vandenhoek moved to their Fort Macleod-area ranch in 2013. The land has been in Erica’s family since her grandparents owned it. Their operation raises grass-fed beef under the Alberta Grass Fed Beef and Blue Rein Ranch name.
Angus and other English beef breeds including Charolais
The ranch states that its cattle are grass fed and grass finished to a minimum of 24 months of age.
The ranch describes its cattle as ethically raised and states that no added hormones are used. Beef is processed at a provincially inspected facility and vacuum packed.
The ranch publishes a no-added-growth-hormones claim. A sufficiently explicit public antibiotic-use policy has not been identified, so antibiotic practices are not stated here.
