Our pastured, free range beef cattle are predominantly Angus with some Angus crosses. We pride ourselves on maintaining strict genetic standards, and have carefully honed our herd over the past fifteen years to produce the finest premium finished meat possible. Since we harvest year round, it is important that our animals have access to green grass at all times. To make this possible, we graze cattle on our home ranch in Tomales, and on other seasonal pastures throughout Northern California. We also have several carefully selected cooperator herds, which means we partner with other outstanding ranchers in Northern California and Oregon who agree to raise our cattle according to our precise standards. We are fortunate to have established relationships with some of the best ranchers in the country who help make our goal of year-round production possible. Our cattle are always 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, which means they never eat corn, soy, or other grains. They also live their entire lives on open pastures and, of course, never see a feedlot. All of our cattle are raised organically, and some of them are certified organic.
Our sheep are white-faced ewes mostly of Dorsett, Parendale, and North Country Cheviot breeds. Their whole lives are spent roaming at will on certified organic open pastures under the watchful eye of our protection dog team. They are always grass-fed and grass-finished, which means they never eat corn, soy, or other grains. Of course, they never see a feedlot. Shorn wool from our herd has been used to create beautiful and long-lasting natural fiber products.
Our free range Duroc, Yorkshire and Landrace cross pigs are raised in a large grove of Eucalyptus trees on our ranch in Tomales. They spend their days communally rooting around, rolling in the mud, and expressing natural piggy behavior.Our pigs can eat as much non-GMO wheat, barley, and peas as they want, along with anything else they root up from the trees.
