Dennis Thomas Gibbs purchased the farmland in the 1940s. The land was transferred to his daughter, Nora Kathryn Keeton. Kathryn died at the age of 98, liking two months to be 99. She still lived at her home place. Kathryn had three sons, Tommy, Kerry, and. Dennis. Dennis Keeton's love for the land and farming has allowed him to continue the tradition. Dennis's son Gibbs and Dennis established Keeton Cattle Co. LLC and have recently branched out in the meat market business, allowing daughter Kristie to introduce 5th-generation son Kael Kristufek and sisters Nora Kassandra, Brinlee Kamdyn, Ilse Kolby and grandson Dennis Knox to help in the beef operation.
All meat is USDA-inspected and raised on the farm. The cattle are 180-day hormone-free and fed grass, hay, and silage produced on the farm. They have a wonderful taste! The meat is processed in Muster by Fishers Meat Market.
Cattle are pastured, raised, and treated with loving hands. Meat is dry-aged for a minimum of 14-21 days, vacuum-packed, and frozen for optimum freshness. The cattle picked for the beef operation are handled with low-stress management practices.
At Keeton Beef, we pride ourselves on delivering premium, USDA-inspected beef that is hormone-free and pasture-raised. Our cattle are treated with care and fed a diet of grass, hay, and silage produced on our farm if the grass gets low or if our beef cattle need it. Silage is an animal feed made from fermented and partially dried crops. Silage is a key element in many farms when the weather is not conducive to a well-balanced diet. Experience the rich flavors of our dry-aged beef, vacuum-packed and frozen for ultimate freshness.
