Founded by Glen Depiero, the operation combines a background in sustainable farming with a measured approach to herd expansion. Their careful sire selection builds genetics known for rich marbling and consistent growth rates while following standards set by the Beef Quality Assurance program to maintain good animal welfare practices. Facilities include climate-controlled calving barns and separate weaning pens, and annual herd evaluations track performance, health and weight gain metrics.
