Honest Farming, Quality Beef
How We Raise Our Cattle
All of our cattle are born and raised right here on our farm in Northern Illinois. They start their lives on pasture, where they roam green hills and graze on fresh grass.
As they grow, we introduce sileage (a mixture of alfalfa, corn, and wheat) into their balanced diet to help them finish strong and produce flavorful, tender beef.
We care for our cattle ourselves, every step of the way. It’s a simple, honest way of doing things — and it’s how we’ve done it since 1870.
100% Grass-Fed on Request
Our beef is not 100% grass-fed. However, for customers who prefer 100% grass-fed beef, we’re happy to offer it upon request.
What Northern Illinois Families Are Saying
Families Enjoying Nadig Farms Beef
I had a very pleasant experience with buying from Nadig Farms. The site was easy to use, helpfully detailed with important information. They answered the phone when you called and helped with any questions about the order you may have. They kept me updated about the status of my order, got it to me in a very timely manner and included a super helpful list of cuts that helped me split the order between households with my family and a handy reference to help plan future meals. Truly A+ customer service, good quality meats, and all at a good price. Thank you very much!

Nadig Farms is truly a dream come true for anyone who values authentic, family-owned, and accommodating farm-to-table operations run by hard-working folks with deep ties to the land. I had the pleasure of touring with father Rob and son Ryan, who opened their gates (and even their garage) to give me a firsthand look at how their beef is raised in the picturesque Driftless area. They even humored me when I asked to chew a piece of the sorghum grass — a funny moment I think shows just how welcoming they are. These cows have it made, and the farm takes absolutely zero shortcuts — just honest work, quality beef, and amazing prices. It’s a win-win I’d recommend to anyone looking for local authentic beef in the Midwest from one of the fairest and most hospitable family businesses I have ever had the pleasure to meet.

The steaks were much higher quality than I expected. They are prime grade and cheaper than the regular steaks at the grocery store! We’re going to be eating a lot more steak now that I found these guys.
★★★★★
Jesse Hepperly, Illinois
We used Nadig Farms ground beef for our recipe for stuffed peppers. It was excellent and far superior to what one can find in supermarkets or butcher shops. We particularly appreciated the fact that it was finely ground and very lean but extremely flavorful. We will be using it again as our preferred ground beef for a variety of dishes.

Stephen Haliczer, Illinois
I am delighted with the outstanding service, superior beef quality, and impeccable packaging offered by Nadig Farm. The prompt and efficient delivery, which arrived at my doorstep as scheduled, was very much appreciated. This purchase was a wise investment, and I look forward to making another purchase once my family has finished the quarter cow. Thank you!
