Welcome to our family.
Trinity County, California
We're a family run ranch passionate about providing you ethical, 100% grass fed & finished beef raised holistically from start to finish.
The road to us may be windy, but we’re straight shooters when it comes to our business.
On our 2,000 acres of ranch-land, we work everyday to better our community and ranching practices, and we’re excited to share our process with you.

We are a holistic ranch. But what is holistic management, anyway?
Holistic management means that we work in tandem with all elements of the ranch to keep the ecosystem healthy.
We do this through planned grazing which makes sure that none of our fields are trampled to the point where they don’t regrow grass naturally.
By charting rotational grazing of our cattle, we are able to manage the amount of manure and soil disturbance put on each of our fields. We do this to ensure natural plant re-growth and recovery. This means healthier soil that holds more carbon, leading to less environmental impact, which is good for all of us.

Even though you’re not grazing our fields, I’m sure you can see why our cows are always hungry for our lush green grasses.
