About Us / Ruth Ann's Garden Style Beef History:

Ruth Ann's Garden Style Beef is produced on a 140-acre "all-grass" farm about an hour from Washington, DC and Baltimore and 20 minutes northwest of Frederick, Maryland. We are the third generation to manage the farm, which has been in the family since 1938. We practice management intensive grazing, a pasture system that utilizes multiple smaller pastures with frequent animals movements. This allows better weight gain and is more environmentally friendly, resulting in a much healthier and nutritious pasture. Ruth Ann's Garden Style Beef is: • Naturally fattened, dry-aged beef grown on a succulent "garden" of grasses, legumes, and forbes • Healthy, tender grass-fed beef • Tasty, with a bold, robust flavor • Free from added hormones or antibiotics • High in Omega 3 fatty acids • High in CLA • USDA inspected • Aged for 3 weeks to promote tenderness (beef in grocery stores is not aged) • Sold in bulk packages as well as individual cuts, ground beef, and patties Ruth Ann's Garden Style Beef, Ruth Ann and Steve Derrenbacher,
