Beyond Organics
by Jordan S. Rubin, author of The Maker's Diet
When I tell people that I have recently fulfilled a dream of mine by
creating a sustainable, "beyond organic" ranch/farm, most immediately
jump to the same conclusion. "So, you plan to raise grass-fed beef
and pastured chickens and eggs, and milk organic dairy cows, goats and
sheep" they assume. While I'm a huge fan of consuming grass fed meat
and dairy, and am extremely passionate about transforming the health
of our nation and world, this project is about completing a journey I
started 15 years ago—and it feels less like a choice and much more
like a responsibility.
You don't have to look far to see the signs that our nation is in
peril—and that we need to act in order to preserve the resources
we've been blessed with in America today. Our right to life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness is quietly under siege, and yet many of
us do not realize it. We have been lulled into a false sense of
security and a false sense of sustainability that has largely left us
complacent and oblivious.
Have you every wondered what would happen to you or your family if the
three to four days worth of groceries at your local supermarket were
not replenished? What would you do for food, water, and medicine?
It's an extreme example, of course, but I would guess that most
people would never even ask the question or consider their level of
preparedness if such an event took place. Our dependence and even
addiction to the existing industrial food machine has led to a
disastrous "dis-connect" between US and our FOOD.
In my view, we are at a critical crossroads as a nation and our
current path is NOT SUSTAINABLE—in any sense of the word. And its not
just about the food we eat—whether it is organic or not. Its about
our health, our families, our communities and our economy. How much
longer can we skate on such thin ice
Pierre Chardin was a French philosopher and Jesuit priest and he
bestowed this wisdom upon the world and I think it is particularly
apropos for this discussion: The future belongs to those who give the
next generation hope.
I'm Jordan Rubin and welcome to my ranch. We can always use a helping
hand because, you see. . . we are Farming for our Future.
The Journey
In 1994, I was stricken with Crohn's disease along with multiple
other illnesses. (Insert before photo) It completely turned my life
upside down. In fact, it sent my life into a death spiral, one that
was not reversed until I began to eat the whole living foods and
powerful probiotics that my body needed to survive and thrive.
As part of my journey back to health, I lived in an RV that I parked
in front of the beach and sometimes a local health food store parking
lot in San Diego. What would drive me to this? I parked near the beach
to breath the fresh ocean air and in front of a health food store that
provided the raw dairy, grass-fed beef, fresh, raw produce and
fermented foods that my ailing body needed, and those foods were often
in short supply. I would wake up and try and be the first person in
the store to secure my raw dairy, eggs from pastured chickens, fresh
grassfed meats and organic produce. This is the time when the vision
for this farm began. As I regained my health, I vowed that I would one
day ensure access to all of these healthy foods for myself and my
future family.
I want to make that point crystal clear. I never want to be without
the foods that helped transform my health. This is even more important
to me in an age where the government increasingly tells us what we can
and can not eat—this is especially true with raw dairy. As a husband
and father, I want the ability to provide the foods that I believe
bring life for my family. Not taking my health for granted means being
as close to the source of the food as possible, and the best way to do
that is to control the supply.
The Land
The obvious first step in controlling the supply is acquiring the
space required for agriculture and livestock production. My space is
now over 8,000 acres of land in southern Missouri, where we are
currently pioneering the largest organic certification project in the
entire state of. But my vision is much bigger than organic. When I
survey the land, this is what I see. I see the means to feed thousands
of families with the world's healthiest food. I see a system that
provides the maximum nutrition per acre and leaves the land more
fertile after each season, rather than stripped and depleted. I see a
food production model that is sustainable in EVERY sense of the word.
Sustainability gets a lot of publicity these days, and for good
reason. The basic concept of sustainability where it relates to land
is the ability to keep the land productive over time with little or no
inputs from the outside. Unfortunately, I don't think most people
really understand what goes into sustainable food production. In fact,
I thought I knew, only to be thrown by the most simple of questions.
Am I a farmer or a rancher?
The key, if you want to have land that is truly sustainable, is to be
both. Now, when most people think of farming, they rightly think of
growing produce crops. And we certainly have plans to do just that.
But the most important thing I will grow is . . . grass. Good grass is
the lynchpin of a sustainable, mixed agricultural operation. Why? The
grass is the connection between the sun and the animals.
Every blade of grass on my land is a solar panel. It stretches out,
takes in the rays of the sun, and uses that energy to grow as it pulls
nutrients from the soil. When the animals eat the grass, they are
capturing the sun's transferred energy. If really pressed, I would
tell people that I am, in fact, a sun harvester and a grass farmer.
While that sounds simple, in reality, it is an intense process. My
learning curve started when I was taught that there is no such thing
as "one grass" to feed animals. In order to provide total nutrition
to ruminant animals such as cows, goats and sheep, I need to have
multiple species of grasses, herbs, forbes and legumes for the animals
to graze on. This provides a more diverse ecological system, as the
grasses support each others growth, and the diet of the livestock. But
it all begins with the sun, the source of energy and nutrition
captured by the tiny solar panel that is each blade of grass.
The Animals
Controlling the supply means not only having healthy land and healthy
grass, but raising healthy produce and livestock. That is not easy to
do. Everybody in the natural health industry wants to have the
ultimate highest standard—organic, sustainable, raw, etc.—and just
about everybody falls down at some point. I am committed to growing
and raising the highest quality foods and beverages available anywhere.
On our ranches and farms all ruminant animals used to produce organic
meat and dairy will be 100% grass-fed and finished and our chickens
will have ample opportunity to consume most of their nutrition by
grazing. In order to do this, we will use a system known as Management
Intensive Grazing. At its best, this system will ensure that our
animals are always eating grass from the ground, even during winter.
While the grass they eat in winter might not be growing at the time, I
believe it is still preferable to stored forage, or hay. Our livestock
will be grass-fed and grass-finished.
It takes a lot of land and detailed management to accomplish the 100%
grass fed plan. A conventional dairy farm, for instance, is able to
raise up to 10 cows per acre. The best I can hope for on my farm is
one adult cow per acre. If you leave a cow to it's own devices, it
will eat grass, a lot of grass. That's the diet it was created to
consume.
Conventional farms may be able to produce more food, but the food we
produce will be much more nutritious and our animals much healthier.
We will not be measured by how much food per acre we create, but by
how much nutrition per bite.
What is the hardest part? Believe it or not, it's not taking care of
the livestock and chickens. It's taking care of the grass. If you can
cultivate diverse and nutrient-dense forage, then the health of the
animals will pretty much take care of itself.
Any sustainable farm or ranch is an ecosystem unto itself. Ours will
not just have cattle, we will also have goats, sheep and chickens
freely roaming, and we'll have bees, fruits, vegetables and even fish
in our large spring fed lake. Our farm will be more ecologically sound
because of our multi-specie approach.
The Produce
If we are to meet our goal of being able to feed thousands of people,
we know we are going to need more than animals. We have to grow
produce on our land.
Our growing season is shorter than it would be in warmer climates,
typically from May to November. We will use that time to grow a wide
variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs and spices. To supplement the
shorter growing season, we will utilize greenhouses, hothouses and
other hydroponic farming methods, allowing us to grow year around.
The best part about a sustainable farm is that nothing goes to waste.
The manure from some of our livestock will be used to fertilize some
of the produce. And, because that livestock is fed on organic grass,
the fertilizer is perfect.
The Water
I chose the land in southern Missouri for many reasons. It is great
land for mixed agricultural use, able to support both produce and
livestock. Missouri also allows for the sale of raw dairy on the farm
and delivered directly to homes. But perhaps the most important reason
for selecting the location of our properties is the live water.
Our properties daily produce millions of gallons of pure and pristine
spring water. Water is even more critical to life than food is. Before
you can have livestock, before you can have grass, you have to have
water. I think access to such a vital natural resource is the absolute
starting point for a sustainable farm. It will allow us to grow
healthy grass, provide water for our animals, and sustain the vitality
of our crops.
The Goal
I have started this "beyond organic" farming and ranching operation
for many reasons. I am fed-up with a bureaucratic system that tells us
what we can and can not eat, and worse, promotes unhealthy food. I
want to be able to provide for myself—and more importantly, my family
—the healthiest foods possible. I want to provide food, water and
even shelter for thousands of people.
If I succeed in these goals, our "beyond organic" farm/ranch may be
the only one of its kind in the United States. Many may have the
same vision, but lack the resources, and those who have the resources
often won't do everything it takes to get there. I will do whatever
it takes to get there. When faced with a seemingly insurmountable
obstacle the easy thing to do is back away, to retreat, let someone
else deal with the problem. I am no longer satisfied watching from the
sidelines—I've decided to do my part and (hopefully) become part of
the solution.
My journey began in an RV in San Diego 15 years ago. And while many
would say that "I have arrived"—I know that my work here has just
begun.
Eat Wild (Sidebar)
According to www.eatwild.com, there are numerous benefits provided by
grass-fed beef, dairy and eggs.
Grass-fed beef is naturally leaner, lower in fat and therefore
calories, than grain-fed beef. Animals fed on grass also have
significantly higher amounts of Omega-3 fatty acids—two to four times
as much—than their grain-fed counterparts. The effect of pasturing is
even more pronounced in chickens. The eggs from chickens who are
allowed to pasture contain up to ten times more omega-3s as those fed
exclusively grain.
Grass-fed meat and dairy products also contain higher amounts of CLA,
or conjugated lineolinic acid. In fact, they may be the richest source
of CLA, a healthy fat that is missing from many diets.
Finally, grass-fed animals are a better source of vitamin E. Vitamin E
is a great antioxidant, and grass-fed cattle can have up to four times
the vitamin E levels has conventionally raised cattle.
The following was taken directly from the eatwild.com website, a great
source for increasing your knowledge of, and finding access to, grass-
fed meat and dairy products.
Score Ten for Grass-Fed Beef
Grass-fed beef is better for human health than grain-fed beef in ten
different ways, according to the most comprehensive analysis to date.
The 2009 study was a joint effort between the USDA and researchers at
Clemson University in South Carolina. Compared with grain-fed beef,
grass-fed beef was:
1.Lower in total fat
2.Higher in beta-carotene
3.Higher in vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol)
4.Higher in the B-vitamins thiamin and riboflavin
5.Higher in the minerals calcium, magnesium, and potassium
6.Higher in total omega-3s
7.A healthier ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids (1.65 vs 4.84)
8.Higher in CLA (cis-9 trans-11), a potential cancer fighter
9.Higher in vaccenic acid (which can be transformed into CLA)
10.Lower in the saturated fats linked with heart disease S.K. Duckett

Tissue proximate, fatty acid, vitamin and cholesterol content."
