Not all mineral is created equal! 🐄

Heritage Nutritionist Tommy Wise recently spoke at the Wood County Beef Cattle Improvement Association’s summer picnic, where he compared weatherized mineral and meal mineral and explained the differences between the two.

The biggest takeaway? Keep cattle on a mineral they will consistently consume year-round. Consistent intake helps ensure your herd is getting the nutrition it needs in every season.

#🌿 Did you know our shavings are compostable and OMRI listed? What does that actually mean?

OMRI (Organic Materials Review Institute) listing means Suncoast shavings have been independently reviewed and approved for use in certified organic operations.

For horse and livestock owners that means:
✅ No synthetic chemicals or additives
✅ Safe to compost — meets EPA/CAFO regulations
✅ Independently verified — not just a marketing claim

🐾 Happy National Dog Day!

Today, we're celebrating some of our favorite four-legged friends! These pups were all submitted as part of our 2027 Heritage Cooperative Calendar Contest, and we couldn't resist giving them a moment in the spotlight.

Whether they're riding in the truck, helping on the farm, or simply keeping us company at the end of the day, dogs are an important part of life in rural communities.

Thanks to everyone who submitted a photo and helped us celebrate our favorite farm friends! 💚

Last week, our interns and agronomy apprentices came together for their final meetup of the summer at Heritage Cooperative headquarters in Delaware, Ohio.

Throughout the day, they explored the many agribusiness careers that make up our cooperative, heard from leaders across the organization, and gained a broader understanding of how the different departments work together to serve our members, customers, and communities.

Experiences like these help showcase the many paths available within agriculture and the value of every role across . 🌱
