Highwood Valley Ranch
|
Highwood Valley Ranch is a fourth generation family operation situated south west of High River on the Highwood River. Owners Ralph and Jacqueline Nelson work with their family, Kristen, Wade and Jaimie, doing things the old fashioned way.
They raise Red and Black Angus cattle as well as forage. Calves are born on the range in the late spring to minimize common calving health issues. In the summer the cows and their calves graze the native grasses of the Foothills west of Longview along Flat Creek. Cattle are moved from pasture to pasture on horseback.
If you would like to know more Highwood Valley Ranch production protocols or if you live in Southern Alberta and wish to purchase HVR beef please contact the Nelson family at (403)601-3891 or send an email to info@highwoodvalleyranch.com
We welcome visits from our customers which provide opportunities to share our connection to the land.
