Your Farmers
Jon Nelson
At JNelson Farms, our vision is to provide healthy food to help people live a healthy life. As well, we want to be good stewards of the land and use it in a sustainable manner. JNelson Farms is owned and operated by Jon and Tammy Nelson and is located about 8 miles northwest of Midland, Michigan on Stark Road.
We have 260 acres of pasture land to support our herd of grazing cattle. Our cattle enjoy the pasture all year long. In the summer, forage is harvested from additional land for the cattle to eat in the seasons when pasture growth isn’t adequate to supply their nutritional needs. Just in case there are needed minerals or vitamins they are not receiving from the pasture, they also have these available as free choice supplements. We work very closely with Michigan State University to utilize the latest research around grazing and land management.
In addition to the farm owned by Jon and Tammy, JNelson Farms also represents an informal cooperative community of producers throughout Michigan who have a common vision to use their resources and capabilities to provide healthy food for people who want it. The goal of the cooperative community is to coordinate the producing interests of our cooperators to develop a supply chain that can provide large enough numbers of animals to entertain the demand of larger organizations. Each producer follows the same production protocol as Jon and Tammy's home farm. Different roles that our cooperators play include: supply of yearling cattle, contract grazing, hay supply.
JNelson Farms has high quality grassfed beef available year round. Please contact us if you would like some. We look forward to helping you and your family enjoy the benefits of grassfed beef.
