The 6 Ranch was homesteaded by our great grandparents in 1893, and our family continues to dedicate ourselves to the health of our land, animals and wildlife that we share our place with. We raise Corriente Cattle which are a choice of beef for Ark of Taste, Slow Food USA. Corriente are a heritage breed that has evolved without human "management", so they are as close to natural as possible. Our calves receive their calfhood vaccinations, and that is the only time we interfere with their own ablity to be healthy. We time our calving in harmony with nature, the same as elk and deer - when the grass starts growing! We do not use any herbicides or fertilizers on our pastures, however spend long hours chopping the weeds by hand to maintain a healthy biodiversity of grasses for our cattle to graze.
