How Our Beef Is Raised in the Mountains of Colorado

At Twin Pines Ranch, every steak, roast, and burger starts with one simple truth — healthy cattle come from healthy land. Nestled in the mountains of Colorado, our herd lives as nature intended: grazing freely, breathing clean air, and drinking pure mountain water. From calf to table, our process is rooted in respect for the animal, the land, and the families we feed.

🥩 A Natural Beginning

Our calves are born and raised right here on the ranch. They spend their lives on open pastures, nursing, grazing, and growing at their natural pace. Each calf thrives on a natural diet of native grasses and forage — the same landscape their mothers roam.

🔥 Grass Fed and Grass Finished

Unlike conventional cattle finished on grain, our animals are grass-fed and finished — meaning they eat only grass their entire lives. This slower, more natural growth process creates beef that’s leaner, richer in nutrients, and full of authentic flavor.

We finish our cattle on lush mountain pastures, allowing them to reach maturity the way nature intended. The result is clean, flavorful beef with no shortcuts — ever.

🌱 Regenerative Grazing

Our cattle are more than livestock — they’re part of our ecosystem. Through rotational grazing, we move them regularly to fresh pastures, mimicking natural herd movement. This practice improves soil health, increases plant diversity, and keeps our mountain grasslands thriving.

Healthy soil means healthy grass, which means healthy cattle, which means healthy people — it’s all connected.
