Join us for a Pasture Walk on October 10th, 2024

After John & Laura Kersten retired, they decided to start a new adventure in life! They bought an 80-acre Amish farm and converted it into a Registered Black Angus ranch! Lots of sweat, and hard work went into bringing electrical, plumbing, HVAC, etc. conversion from a working Amish farm/sawmill. Their goal has been to establish a grass feed (pasture and finish) breeding stock and meat sales that maintains a high EPD ratings!
