All‑Natural Angus on Open Range

  • Our beef is Certified All‑Natural through the IMI Global “Where Food Comes From” program. That seal means our cattle are:

    • Never given added hormones or antibiotics

    • Traceable from birth to box

    • Handled according to rigorous animal‑wellfare standards

    The result is a higher‑grade, premium beef that earns a place on discerning plates.

  • We’ve partnered with 44 Farms - a Texas‑based ranch whose mission is to raise exceptional Angus cattle while supporting family ranchers and practicing responsible land stewardship.

  • Adaptive Rotation: Paddocks are rested long enough for deep root regrowth, building soil organic matter.

    Bird‑Friendly Timing: Spring grazing is planned around the nesting cycles of native ground‑nesting birds.

    No Overgrazing: Stocking rates adjust with rainfall and forage growth to keep pastures healthy for decades to come.

  • Cattle and soil work together to store carbon. With EarthOptics’ sensors—including the TruCarbon™ system we already use on our hay fields, we’re tracking how grazing management adds organic matter. Those measurements support emerging offset markets like Grass Roots Carbon and help us prove our environmental impact in hard data.

Desert Creek Ranch raises a closed herd of Black Angus cattle that spend their lives on wide‑open Central Oregon grasslands. They graze native and improved pastures year‑round, moving with the seasons so the land and the wildlife that share it can rest and recover.
