Full Review

Force of Nature Meats was co-founded by Robby Sansom and Taylor Collins, who previously founded Epic Bar (now owned by General Mills). The company is headquartered in Austin, Texas, and sources cattle and other animals from ranches in Texas and the American Southwest. Their beef is 100% grass-fed and grass-finished on certified regenerative farms, and the company is a strong advocate for holistic planned grazing as a tool for land regeneration. What makes Force of Nature unique is their emphasis on ancestral cuts and blended products: their ground meat blends often include organ meats (heart, liver) mixed into the ground, making it easy to get the nutritional benefits of organ meats without having to prepare them separately.

They also offer bison, venison, and elk alongside beef, giving consumers access to a range of wild and pasture-raised proteins. The brand is available at select Whole Foods, other specialty retailers, and online nationwide.

Our Editorial Assessment

GrassFed Source Editorial Team — based on certifications, published farming practices, and aggregated customer feedback. We do not accept payment for reviews or assessments.

Force of Nature is the strongest option in the ancestral health category. The organ blend ground products solve a real barrier most buyers face: organ meats are widely regarded as nutritionally valuable but many people don't know how to prepare them. Blending heart and liver into ground beef removes that obstacle entirely. The founders' track record with Epic Bar (a credible, scaled food brand) suggests operational competence rather than a startup food brand with aspirations. Certified Regenerative by AGW and AGA-certified, with Texas and Southwest ranch provenance. Best for buyers who want maximum nutritional density in convenient format, or who care about land stewardship beyond just grass-fed status. Our assessment is based on their published certifications, farming practice documentation, product formulations, and aggregated customer reviews.
