  Description

  We are a small family owned cattle ranch. Our operation consists of about 40 cow/calf pairs. They are fed on the home ranch during the winter and go out onto the range during the summer months. Summer operations include: checking cattle out on range, growing and harvesting hay crops, tillage for re-seeding, fence maintenance.
