Root Prairie Galloways raises purebred American Galloways. on pastures located in the Bluff Country of Southeastern Minnesota. With our cattle we are practicing regenerative agriculture on HEL, (highly erodible land). Ground that was once eroded cornfields, has gradually transitioned into diverse and healthy grassland ecosystems.

We are a cow calf operation and we raise, grow and finish our beef exclusively on grass pastures and sell our beef directly to the consumer.

Galloways were our breed of choice for their ability to produce quality beef in a low input grazing system, known for being easy keepers the thrifty and moderate sized Galloway can thrive where higher maintenance cattle would require more feedstuffs to stay in condition.


"We had a taste test last Friday and it just confirmed for us that We want to raise Galloway! good flavor and texture! Our chef was impressed with the meat because he struggles to find grass fed beef that meets people's steak expectations, yours did."
