"Grass to Protein the Natural Way"
Our Story
Our founder, Michael Breetz’s relationship with Northern Kentucky and its Licking River Valley dates back more than half a century. As a youth, he was intrigued by farming and raising cattle. He loved the notion of being a steward of the land and chose to pursue the age-old practice of livestock farming. Through his pursuit, he discovered the concept of regenerative farming and fell in love with the idea. Since then, he has built his farm around being a nurturing, carbon negative space that promotes the wellbeing of cattle, the environment, and the people who enjoy both!
Serving High Quality
Licking Valley Cattle Co. has Historic Aberdeen Angus from Australia that enable us to raise smaller frame cattle that produce prime meat from our local forages. We utilize both summer and winter annuals reducing the need for hay and supplements to deliver a more sustainable and delicious product.
Making a Difference.
We are currently working in partnership with the University of Kentucky College of Agriculture in order to develop rotational grazing through Master Grazer – a program with the purpose of improving grazing practices through outreach and education. They recently certified Licking Valley Cattle Co. as a Quality Cattle Handling and Care Facility.
Regenerative Farming: Good for You; Good for the Earth.
Regenerative Farming is the practice of revitalizing your soil and remaining carbon negative while farming. At Licking Valley Cattle Company we allow our cattle to only forage feed, which ensures that our fields are never overgrazed. This increases water quality and helps with holistic carbon capturing efforts.
Simply Good.
