We purchased our ranch in 2001 in the Sonoita/Elgin area in southern Arizona and moved to the area from Cave Creek Arizona. We started out raising sport cattle and switched to raising Black Angus a short time later in order to provide healthy, tender grass fed beef.

The Sonoita/Elgin area is rich in history with fine dining, lodging, entertainment, and unique shopping. The temperatures are moderate in both summer and winter and is a quiet, peaceful area to relax. There are gorgeous sunsets and array of wildlife and birds. There are many ranches in the area including the historic Empire Ranch which hosts the Ranch Roundup in November and is open to the public. There are also many great wineries open for wine tasting and at times serve luncheons and dinners. Enjoy annual horse races, quarter horse show, rodeo and the county fair.

We are blessed with the "Good Life" and love working with our animals and enjoying the events of the area and visiting with many friends and neighbors.
