Home on the Ranches

Ranches.org is home for several Texas Panhandle Ranches headquartered in Amarillo. These cattle companies are committed to improving the land, maintaining a diversity of wildlife and flora, while producing a quality beef product and profitability for the owners. Particular care is given to stocking rates, pasture resting and water. Grass and water are a rancher's assets. Both are renewable and allow continuous production of a high quality protein, if a rancher takes care of them. Ranchers are temporary stewards of the land and the livestock and their survival depends upon quality care of both.
A ranch is just dirt. Grass comes with help from above. Success comes with hard work, luck and care.
I will provide grass in the fields for your cattle, and you will eat and be satisfied. Deuteronomy 11:15

Principals in these ranches are also affiliated with McLean Feedyard, a progressive feedyard, owned by ranchers and located south of McLean, Texas, in Donley County.

Smith and our new horse fancier--Clara

Texas Panhandle Prescribed Burn Association
Around a million acres burned in March of 2006. We used our experience with controlled burns to start a backfire, controlling the wildfire before it destroyed the whole Donley County ranch. Photos of wildfire.
