Our Charolais Story
Donnie Gast bought his first Charolais heifer in 1969, as a Freshman FFA project. He never looked back. Gast was sold on the breed, inspired by early Missouri Charolais breeders like Bob Spain and Jerry Litton. The same year that Gast decided to blaze his Charolais trail, the breed itself was at the forefront of changing the cattle industry forever with its participation in type conferences that eventually led to the development of the new U.S. Feeder cattle grades.
His first heifer and then some bulls purchased from friend and mentor Spain evolved into 300 mature cows, 40 bred heifers and another 100 open females at the Gast farm today. Through natural and artificial service, Gast and his uncle Duane Gast, who is no longer living, built the herd.
Today, the team includes his wife Lori; business partner and owner of TMC Feeders, Scott City, Ks., Bob Thompson and ranch employees Carlos and Anna Augilar.
