THE COLDWATER RANCH STORY

Jordan

Jordan here.

I’ve spent years caring for cattle, and I don’t understand how so-called “cowboys” can watch their animals crammed into feedlots, belly-deep in their own waste, for their entire lives. That’s not ranching. That’s neglect.

I’ve always loved animals. When my wife and I started ranching, we were determined to break the mold. We treated our cows with respect, hell, we even named some of them. And we weren’t just raising beef—we were raising a legacy.

The Ranch

Two years ago, our land was a depleted wheat field—dry, cracked, nothing would grow. Today, it’s lush, green pasture filled with native grasses and thriving ecosystems.

This is the legacy our cattle leave behind. They don’t just live—they heal. They build soil, sequester carbon, and turn dead ground into living ecosystems. That pasture isn’t just our work—it’s theirs.

The Cows

At Coldwater Ranch, our cattle stay with their mothers and herd from birth to harvest, except for a short, carefully managed weaning period. This low-stress, family-based approach matters—stress affects their health, growth, and the quality of the meat.

We keep herds together, provide consistent positive interaction, and continually apply the latest handling research. With proper nutrition, mothers can nurse longer, producing stronger, healthier calves while ensuring each newborn gets full access to colostrum.

The result? Cattle that graze naturally, free from hormones, antibiotics, vaccines, or chemicals—producing beef that’s flavorful, tender, and nutrient-rich. We do what’s best for the animals, because it’s what’s best for the land, the meat, and you.

I need to be honest: I wasn’t always a “beef guy.” Hell, I used to hate steak.

Then I met Jordan.

While other operations had feedlots and gas-guzzling tractors, Jordan's ranch had open pastures his cattle had restored themselves. Solar panels powered some of the ranch work. Horses herded the cows. He was like a damn Space Cowboy.

That’s when I stopped seeing this as a passion project and started seeing it as a responsibility: to tell people what’s possible when animals, land, and humans are treated right.

Our Mission

As we grow, we’re committed to buying more depleted farmland and letting our cattle do what they do best—heal ecosystems. Every box you receive helps reclaim land, one pasture at a time.

We’re also committed to raising the healthiest beef. To us, that means free from hormones, antibiotics, and harmful pasture chemicals, and a stress-free life whenever possible.

From a couple of passionate madmen...thank you!

WHAT MAKES US STAND OUT?

NATURAL, CLEAN, AND TRUSTED

We raise our cattle naturally, without hormones or antibiotics, to deliver clean, flavorful beef you can trust. Pasture-raised and grass-fed, just the way nature intended — no artificial additives, ever. Integrity and transparency that you can trust.

RAISED RIGHT FROM THE START

Our calves are born in spring, when grass is green and weather is kind. That means healthier births and stronger animals.

QUALITY STARTS AT THE SOURCE

We focus on proven genetics, clean nutrition, and natural, low-stress conditions. Every decision is made to support long-term animal health. The result is consistently flavorful, nutrient-dense beef you can count on.

STEWARDSHIP, WELFARE, AND BALANCE

We treat our pastures as ecosystems, rotating grazing to support soil health, biodiversity, and natural regeneration—never overworked, always respected. Our cattle stay with their herd, live low-stress lives, and are handled with care from birth to harvest—because healthy animals make better beef. We manage land and livestock together, ensuring both thrive in harmony. It’s a holistic system built on respect, renewal, and long-term sustainability.
