Fall is here and the colder temps mean I want nothing but warm and comforting meals pretty much exclusively. This time of year is also when I love to cook with pork; it’s fantastic for low and slow cooking and pairs really well with fall veggies and even fruit. Here are my current favorite pork […]
This post has been rattling around in my head for quite some time now. It’s no secret or surprise that when it comes to shopping for meat I am always in favor of supporting local ranchers at the source but I know that doing so does come at a premium compared to just stopping by […]

It never ceases to amaze me how our dairy cows are able to break down plant material in the form of grasses and other forages into rich, delicious milk that feeds their calves, us, our customers, bottle lambs, the list goes on.

Not many people know this about me but I used to be vegan. It’s a looooong story but aside from believing in a lot of the health claims surrounding plant based foods, I found myself being sucked into a lot of the rhetoric shared on social media and blogs regarding things like antibiotics in meat […]

If you’ve ever visited us here at the ranch you’ve more than likely seen (and definitely heard!) our Great Pyrenees, Tuffy. Tuffy is fiercely loyal to her people, larger than life, and we love her very much. But she’s not a pet. She’s our Livestock Guardian Dog, or LGD for short, and her role on […]

I can taste is all over again looking at these pictures. We are accidental farmers. We didn’t intend to raise livestock for a living. But, I had a passion for food and growing and raising our own. That passion turned into a major love of feeding others and branched out to us raising that quality […]
