We raise 100% grass fed and grass finished black and red Angus using regenerative practices such as holistic management, and low stress animal handling.
We firmly believe that a combination of these two techniques produces high quality beef, as well as enriching the environment and protecting local ecosystems.
100% grass fed
Holistic Management
Low Stress Animal Handling
We are a small family owned ranch interested in conserving the environment and regenerating the land through farming techniques that improve water cycles and produce healthier livestock by de facto healthier diets to humans.
At our small sunny family ranch, we're passionate about preserving nature and revitalizing our land through innovative farming methods.
For us, regeneration is an ongoing journey where we're constantly experimenting and refining our techniques.
We employ managed grazing to boost organic matter and aim to enhance carbon sequestration in the long run.
We're dedicated to making strides toward a more sustainable future while nurturing our farm to be a thriving, eco-friendly space.
We harvest our beef in the fall when the livestock is at its healthiest point. We sell our beef in whole, halves and quarters. It is processed here on our ranch which allows the cattle to be relaxed and causes them little stress.
We use our local butcher Baker Custom Meats in Baker City who will cut and wrap your beef to your specifications.
You can expect a 20%-30% shrink between your hanging weight and the final amount you take home. This will vary based on how you have your beef cut. Average weight for a whole is 330-380 lbs. Additionally, you need to pay a cut and wrap fee that goes directly to our butcher.
For beef purchases and questions please contact Cielo Schacht at: Sunny57ranch@gmail.com
Local pickup is available from the local butcher and/or the ranch. Unfortunately, we are small producers and we do not deliver. However, we love guests!
Our paying customers are invited to the ranch to spend the night free of charge in our guest house, once proper arrangements have been made.
You can make it a road trip, spend the night at the ranch in comfortable accommodations, meet the ranchers, and see the operation.
