“In business since 2014, Midway Meadows exists to feed families with humanely raised, Scottish Highland heritage-breed beef. As a Minnesota Water Quality Certified and solar-powered farm, we practice regenerative farming, responsibly raising a leaner cut of beef. Midway Meadows is a member of the Quality Highland Beef (QHB) program, contractually promising our cattle are raised in a humane manner, without added hormones, steroids, or feed antibiotics.”
– Julianne Motis and Jason Paulson, owners
The Project
Grant funds helped purchase a manure spreader and a highly energy-efficient cattle cup (watering system).
Environmental Impact
Using a manure spreader on their farm will improve pasture health by regenerating the soil. The new cattle cup will reduce both energy consumption and water waste from evaporation.
