Farmer Spotlight: Gonsoulin Land & Cattle
When we talk about “Heritage” at Southern Farms, we aren’t just using a marketing buzzword. We are talking about families like the Gonsoulins, who have been stewarding the same land in New Iberia, Louisiana, since 1787.
Beyond Grass-Fed
Led by Dr. Shannon Gonsoulin, DVM, the mission of Gonsoulin Land & Cattle (GLC) is simple but relentless: “A local product, a healthy product, one that we can be proud of.”
Unlike grocery store beef, GLC cattle are both grass-fed and grass-finished. They are raised humanely without antibiotics or growth hormones, exactly as nature intended. This commitment to quality is why they were recently featured on Emeril Cooks!—because the world-renowned Chef Emeril Lagasse knows that the best flavor starts with the best care.
Why it Matters to You
We choose to carry Gonsoulin beef because it fits the Bayou Standard. It’s clean, it’s local, and it supports a multi-generational Louisiana legacy. When you buy a GLC Ribeye or Ground Beef at Southern Farms, you aren’t just getting a meal—you are supporting 200 years of Cajun agricultural tradition.
