Big Leap Ranch

Big Leap Ranch What a crazy leap of faith we took! Follow our adventures as we build our Homestead Ranch Welcome! So far in our 2nd year, we have added quail and rabbits.

We are city people who decided when the pandemic started that we wanted a different way of life (yes, we are THOSE people LOL). We sold our house in the city and moved out to almost the middle of nowhere in January 2021 to learn how to raise animals for food or who have other "jobs" to do, grow our own vegetables, and enjoy life. In our first year, we added goats (Nigerian Dwarf and Boer), pigs (I

daho Pasture Pigs), turkeys, ducks, geese, chickens, guinea fowl, barn cats, and a couple of livestock guardian puppies (still in training). Hope you enjoy our adventures...and if you have any experience to share, knowledge, ideas or suggestions, we would love to hear them!

New flavors of brats… win win win! The Buffalo blue cheese and the boozy ghost pepper pack a punch (one definitely more than the other)…the hatch green chili is subtle but yummy, and the garlic Parmesan is scrumptious. Still need to try the apple….

Yes…been eating lots of brats in the last 24 hours…but have to try all the flavors to be able to speak to them, right?!?!

So after the unexpected litter and the pyometra, we decided that all dogs on the property need to be fixed.

Most of our dogs are working dogs and apparently we have visitors that we can’t control…and the pyo was the scariest and worst experience we have had as the family of some very special pups.

We currently have 4 of our working dogs in cones (Millie is the latest patient, and is frustrated with the challenges with eating her chicken leg with a cone on) …1 more is already neutered so only 2 more to go….till the pups are old enough anyway. Really hoping 2 of the 3 pups find their forever homes before we get there 👍🙏👍🙏

SO cool! 🤩

Good news! Chops, pork steaks, etc will be back in stock Saturday…earlier than anticipated !!! These have been in high demand and we have been out of chops for a few weeks now so be sure to submit your order early to ensure I have what you need.

We also have lots of new and seasonal brat and sausage flavors so be sure to check them out! They will be added to the website tomorrow and available for purchase on Saturday. Make sure to stop by and see what’s new!

Finally - end of season clearance….smoked hocks/shanks and ham steaks will be 25% off on Saturday! These may go quickly so get your orders in ahead of time to ensure availability.

Yum! Soup using homemade chicken broth, home grown chicken, lard, and bacon, and organic potatoes, corn, onion, garlic and poblano peppers and a bit of cream, salt, pepper, and cumin. So good! 😋

Figured they were around, but lack of proof was comforting 🥴

Going to the market today, we had a hitchhiker! Found this guy hiding in the tent…moved over to our neighbors tent during the market but then came back to its spot in ours as the market was ending just like he knew it was time to go home 😂.
