Middlebrook Farm, located east of Chicago, in Harbor County Michigan, was established in 1844. We purchased the 22-acre property in 2005. In December 2007, we left the city to live on the farm full time. Our mission has been to return the land to the biodiversity of the past, and to raise happy, healthy animals using the pasture rotation method. With pregnant cows, a bull, steers, one llama, numerous cats and two bee hives, our lives are full.

We raise Lowline Angus for beef and breeding stock. We believe animals should be raised entirely on their natural diet. Our cattle graze pastures of grasses, clover and alfalfa. In winter, they eat lots of hay!. We use no chemicals on pasture, and our animals receive no added hormones or antibiotics.

Studies show that 100% grass-fed beef are lower in total fat and cholesterol. It is higher in omega-3s, CLA, vitamin E and beta-carotene. Good things come from pasture salad mix!

Our beef is USDA inspected, processed and frozen in individual packages. It is priced per pound. We sell direct to you from our farm store. Honey and eggs are also available.

We are happy to e-mail a price list. Call to pick up beef or to visit the farm. We deliver in the Chicago area. We'd like to introduce you to our "happy" cows!
