Our Practices
At Lazy P Farms, we take pride in raising healthy, productive cattle while caring for the land that sustains them. Under the leadership of Steven Peterson, our ranching philosophy is built on sustainability, efficiency, and animal welfare—values that ensure both our livestock and environment thrive.
Our cattle are raised on nutrient-rich pastures, grazing on high-quality forage that promotes strong growth and overall well-being. To supplement their diet, we carefully select feeds that mimic the natural seasonal changes cattle experience in the wild. Regular veterinary care, including vaccinations and parasite control, keeps our herd healthy and disease-free. We also use low-stress handling techniques to keep our cattle calm and comfortable, which leads to better meat quality and overall productivity.
Sustainable land management is at the heart of what we do. Through rotational grazing, we allow pastures to regenerate naturally, preventing overgrazing and improving soil health. Our regenerative grazing practices enhance soil fertility, increase water retention, and reduce erosion, creating a balanced ecosystem where both cattle and native wildlife can flourish. We also implement efficient watering systems and protect riparian areas, ensuring clean water sources for our livestock while preserving the environment. By managing manure responsibly and maintaining deep-rooted grasses, we contribute to carbon sequestration and long-term sustainability.
At Lazy P Farms, our goal is simple: to produce high-quality beef while nurturing the land for future generations. By integrating traditional wisdom with modern sustainable practices, we ensure that both our cattle and the environment remain healthy and productive year after year.
We welcome any questions you may have—our commitment to transparency and responsible ranching is something we’re always happy to share!
