Grass-Fed Beef in Kansas: Where to Buy
Kansas is the heart of the American cattle industry, the Flint Hills region of east-central Kansas contains the largest remaining tract of tallgrass prairie in North America, making it one of the most naturally suited landscapes for grass-fed beef production in the world. Yet most Kansas cattle are grain-finished in feedlots. Wholly Cow Market, a 5th-generation family ranch in Johnson City (southwest Kansas), is a genuine exception, 100% grass-fed and finished, shipping nationwide. US Wellness Meats, based in neighboring Missouri, also ships to all Kansas addresses. Closer to home, Natural Grocers provides the best statewide retail coverage for certified grass-fed brands.
