Endophyte-Free Tall Fescue Seed, 50 lb — Fawn, Cajun or K-32, Variety Varies

Endophyte-free fescue is an early-maturing, high-yielding, and durable variety with no endophyte. Removing the endophyte eliminates toxic risks to animals, making it 100% safe for livestock. Prevents fescue toxicosis, reproductive issues, and "fescue foot." Animals consuming endophyte-free fescue achieve higher weight gains and superior milk production compared to those consuming conventional fescue.

Forage Tall Fescue. Widely adapted to tolerate heat and cold. Safe for horses, sheep, goats, alpacas, llamas, and cattle. 

We offer both Fawn, K-32, and Cajun 2 under this item number. If you order online and want one variety over the other, please call us.  On 8/27/26, only Fawn is in stock.

Fawn Tall Fescue (Festuca arundinacea) is a deep-rooted, cool-season perennial bunchgrass growing 24 to 48 inches tall. It is widely used for pastures, hay, turf, and erosion control because it is endophyte-free, making it safe for livestock like horses, while offering exceptional drought and heat tolerance.

Cool-season perennial bunchgrass
Safety: Endophyte-free (safe for grazing horses and livestock)
Roots: Deep root system providing strong drought and heat resistance
Establishment: Fast germination with strong seedling vigor
Height: Reaches 2 to 4 feet tall if left uncut 
Uses and Applications
Pasture and Forage: Tolerates intensive grazing and heavy animal traffic
Hay Production: Excellent for adding to hay portfolios or grass hay mixes
Erosion Control: Great for roadsides, waterways, and difficult soils
Turf and Play Areas: Suitable for low-maintenance turf, play areas, and athletic fields
Planting Guidelines
Best Planting Seasons: Spring or Fall (Fall is optimal)
Planting Depth: Approximately 0.5 inches
Seeding Rate (New Stand): 8 to 10 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. (or 20 to 30 lbs. per acre)
Seeding Rate (Overseeding): 5 to 8 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. 
This generally costs 20% more than K-31, but we purchased this as K-31 was increasing before endophyte fescue followed suit.
