Rivas Ranch

Y’ALL!!! SHE’S LIVE! And she’s purdy! 💗

Our new website is officially LIVE, and I couldn’t be more excited!

But this is about so much more than a new website.

We’ve listened. We’ve learned. And we’ve been paying attention.

We know the questions y’all ask, the hesitations, and the things that keep you from pulling the trigger on buying directly from a farm. Too many unknowns, confusing options, expensive shipping, or simply figuring out how to get our products to YOU.

We’ve spent five years learning how to make that easier.

Now everything we’ve been building is under one roof! Bulk beef, curated meat boxes, pork, lamb, goat, tallow skincare, pet treats, recipes, events, our story, and even my personal favorite… The Wall of BS! 😂

And y’all, we’re shooting for the STARS in 2027! 🚛

📍 MONTHLY delivery routes throughout NC

📍 QUARTERLY routes up and down the Eastern Seaboard

📍 TWICE A YEAR we’re heading cross-country, including back to our home state of California, where so many of our biggest cheerleaders are!

Y’all, we’re only FIVE YEARS into this journey, and we’ve been moving at the speed of light. And that’s because of YOU.

Your questions, your feedback, your encouragement, and every single person who’s supported this little ranch have helped shape what we’re building.

We’re just getting started, and I’m pretty damn proud of how far we’ve come. 💗

Go poke around! Tell me what you love, what we missed, and where you want to see us in 2027!

Made it all the way to the end of the road before my brain went, “April... the fu***ng lambs.”

Turn around. Back to the barn. Try again.

Yep. I proudly sell halal beef, lamb & goat. And I proudly sell it to EVERYONE. 💅🏽

Muslim. Christian. Jewish. Atheist. Agnostic. Left. Right. Somewhere in the middle. Don’t give a damn and just want a really good steak.

I raise food for people. All people.

Offering halal meat doesn’t exclude anybody, it means more of my neighbors can buy meat from a local farmer and feed their families according to their own beliefs.

And with 150+ food recalls already this year, if a little halal certification is what has you clutching your pearls…

get a fu***ng grip.

There are actual food-safety issues worth being concerned about.

Halal isn’t one of them.

Around here, everybody gets a seat at the table.

Better food. Less bu****it.

Six years ago, before I had a single product to sell, I told Jeff that someday I wanted pet treats to be part of what I wanted to build at Rivas Ranch. 🥹

He reminded me of that this week while we were tweaking label designs and troubleshooting the freeze dryer for the hundredth time. 😒

The goal was never simply to make dog treats. My vision was to responsibly raise animals on pasture and build a true nose-to-tail farm brand. To respect the whole animal, waste as little as possible, and eventually create something valuable from the parts that are too often overlooked.

This weekend, that piece of the vision finally joins our lineup.

Introducing TWO BARKING DOGS by Rivas Ranch: raw, freeze-dried treats made from the same pasture-raised animals we raise to feed your family.

Despite the name, cats love them too….they’re willing to overlook the branding. 🐈

Our first four varieties:

🐾 HEART STRINGS
100% pasture-raised beef heart strips

🐾 HENHOUSE HARVEST
Pasture-raised chicken liver, heart + lung

🐾 RANCH HAND
Goat + lamb liver, heart + kidney

🐾 CHICKEN KICKERS
Whole pasture-raised chicken feet

Real animals. Real ingredients. Nothing hidden behind a cute little bone shape.

This line brings together everything Rivas Ranch was always meant to be: responsible farming, whole-animal use, good food and a deeper respect for the animals that provide it.

Feeding the whole family includes the ones covered in fur.

Two Barking Dogs officially launches this weekend:

📍 SATURDAY
Greensboro Farmers Curb Market
501 Yanceyville Street
Greensboro, NC 27405
8 a.m.–12 p.m.

📍 SUNDAY
Trade Street Farmers Market

📍 SUNDAY
Fall Market at Wise Man

Winston-Salem, NC 27101
12–5 p.m.

Launch special: choose any two bags plus a bag of Chicken Kickers for $25.

This first run is limited, so come early. Your dog or cat does not want to hear that you showed up after we sold out.

🥩 FARM UPDATE: SEPTEMBER BEEF IS SOLD OUT, BUT WE JUST OPENED MORE OCTOBER SPOTS

September bulk beef is officially SOLD OUT.

October was almost sold out too, but we were able to secure an additional processing date, which means we just opened up a few more bulk beef spots.

If you’ve been thinking about ordering a quarter, half, or whole beef, reserve it now. These spots will go fast.

Once October fills, we’ll move into November processing for December delivery.

☪️ Halal beef is also available for October bulk orders.

🐑 Lamb is currently SOLD OUT, but we are taking deposits now for whole lambs for holiday delivery.

🐓 Pastured chicken is SOLD OUT right now, but our next chickens will be processed later this week and availability will be limited.

We do have a Cut Chicken Bundle available on the website, and individual chicken will be available while supplies last.

📍 Trade Street Market, Downtown Winston-Salem — Sunday Trade Street Farmers Market

📍 Greensboro Curb Farmers Market — Tuesday evening + Saturday morning Greensboro Farmers Curb Market

📍 King Farmers Market — Wednesday morning
