Meat bearing the Weiderind label is sourced from designated beef cattle breeds that are raised according to the highest animal welfare standards, spend a lot of time in the pasture and eat grass and hay.
Weiderind (pasture beef) – beef from sustainable suckler cow husbandry
Pasture grazing and plenty of space
The cattle spend time outdoors every day, graze extensively in green meadows and benefit from plenty of space in the open-air exercise yard.
A mother’s love in the herd
The calves grow up together with their mothers in the herd. They can drink their mother’s milk at any time and develop naturally into young cattle. Later, they join a herd of animals of the same age.
