About Us
Our Mission
We strive to produce quality beef for our local community through direct sales and sustainable operations. We value locally sourced home-grown food that is grown with care and consideration for the animal and for the land. We believe that local food systems are vital to every community and are an important recipe in sustaining small family farms and ranches across America.
Our Ranch
Our family ranch is located at the edge of the Great Basin in South-Central Oregon. We are working to raise kids, cows, and hay in an area that is known for its wide-open space. The ranch is diverse in vegetation and utilization. Calving season is followed by green grazing and growing. Hay is harvested for the cold months. By November those cattle that are of age and size are sold directly to you, others are weaned and sent to the general market to further their growth. Mother cows prepare for their next calf, and we do it all over again.
Our Cattle
Our ranch beef is primarily angus with a hint of hereford and a splash of charolais. We track our cattle's age and lineage. This helps to ensure we keep desired genetics and top-notch mothers in the herd. Our cattle are raised with plenty of open pasture and quality feed, which ensures health throughout the herd by reducing disease and the need for antibiotics. Cattle are considered "Grass-Fed." Feed is mainly grass for 6-7 months of the year and hay (grass, alfalfa, rye) for 5-6 months of the year. Our cattle are grown on a natural cycle with no growth hormones to speed the bulk process.
Our Local Partners
We have partnered with other Lake County producers who have the same values and mission as we do "quality beef for our local community." By expanding from our own herd, we have been able to provide a greater inventory and the ability to feed more families in our area. We take the extra steps to obtain the animals history to assure each animal aligns with our program.
