Nelson Ranch Cattle

We believe in being responsible stewards of the land and using sustainable, humane methods. Therefore, we do “rotational grazing” which not only allows us to maintain healthy pastures but also allows our cattle to graze on the most nutrientrich part of the grass. Since we are on the banks of the Deschutes River, the yearly flooding of our fields ensures an endless supply of natural minerals and nutrientrich soil. The grass is managed through a combination of grazing and haying. We then feed the cattle the hay during the winter months.
