Ever wonder where the name James Ranch comes from? “James” isn’t our last name. It’s actually an acronym, made up of the first letters of our family’s names, brought together to form one word that represents all of us as a team, and what we’ve built. For Beef Month, we’re giving you a behind-the-scenes look at that team. Each week, we’ll be highlighting the people who make this ranch what it is, the work, the passion, and the personalities behind your beef.
Welcome to “S” week in James…
👉 Steven
Steven, the “S” in James Ranch, is the youngest member of the family and brings a strong work ethic and bright future to the operation. While he has always enjoyed spending time on the ranch and helping wherever needed, Steven has focused much of his time on continuing his education and building a path of his own. His roots in the cattle industry run deep, and he remains a familiar face at Ranch Day events and around the ranch during breaks. Steven is currently in the Police Academy and is looking forward to serving his community as an Officer. While his career path is expanding beyond the ranch, his connection to James Ranch and the values it represents will always be a part of who he is.
🤠Beef Month Wrapped Up🐂
Thank you so much for sticking around as we introduced ourselves to y’all throughout beef month. James Ranch is built on family, and the friends who’ve become family. It takes all of us: early mornings, long days, and a shared commitment to doing things the right way, to bring you the best beef we can.
We’re not a lab.
We’re not a corporate operation.
We don’t rely on fancy degrees to figure out how beef should taste.-And we’re saying that with multiple degrees across the family.
We rely on hard work.
On experience passed down.
And on a dedication to doing things the natural way. Cause let’s be honest, people were eating great beef long before colleges were ever built. And way before labs got involved.
That’s what makes James Ranch what it is.
Clean. Local. 100% Transparent. Real Beef.
