The Acre & Plate directory has grown to 54 ranches across the U.S. selling beef from named herds: Fullblood Wagyu, Akaushi, heritage breeds, and grass-fed family ranches. Each ranch is verified from its public website.
One new verified ranch since the 53 milestone: The Log Cabin Ranch. The listing header says Ina, IL, and the same page also says Southern Illinois (100% grass-fed and grass-finished; regenerative rotational grazing, moving cattle to new pasture several times a week, sometimes daily; no Roundup, pesticides, or fungicides; non-GMO pastures; natural free-choice minerals; non-pasteurized apple cider vinegar as probiotic; late weaning at 10+ months). It is the first Illinois listing in the directory.
Same rule as always: not grocery-store marketing, just working ranches selling direct to people who care where dinner came from. Browse by breed and state at acreandplate.com/listings. Ranch partners who want premium placement can see Featured Ranch at acreandplate.com/featured (one-pager: PDF).
