Our regenerative ranching story begins with a drought. Something that plagues the nightmares of every farmer or rancher at some point. Our drought though was more than just a lack of rain; we were low on rain, low on grass, low on money, and low on faith. We looked to our Creator for guidance, and He led us to find the regenerative way of agriculture and ranching. The tenants of regenerative ranching and farming seem to line up with God's word and promote the wellbeing of the land and animals that He gave us to steward as well as the health and wellbeing of people. We immediately fell in love with this "new" way of ranching. That was two years ago, and since then we've healed our land and our hearts.
The cattle, pigs, and chickens we raise are as natural as you can find. They are raised on what they are created to eat, meaning no synthetic or chemical substances are added. Our cows eat grass with no fertilizer or herbicides; our pigs eat grass, organic grain feed plus fruits, vegetables and nuts grown here on our ranch; our chickens eat grass, bugs, and organic grain feed. There are no antibiotics, no vaccines, and no added hormones. Our animals are healthy, and therefore their meat and eggs are healthy too! At Red Stick Ranch, we provide the same healthy food for your family to enjoy that our family enjoys.
Psalms 104:14,31- "You cause the grass to grow for the livestock and plants for man to cultivate, that he may bring forth food from the earth... May the glory of the Lord endure forever!"
