About Us
Jeff’s involvement in the registered Angus business started in the early 1990s when his dad gave him the pick of a couple heifers purchased from Westwind Angus and Flesch Angus. From those heifers, Jeff grew his cow numbers throughout the years to build the foundation of our herd today.
Christie grew up on a commercial cow-calf operation in the Bear Paw Mountains at Warrick, MT which is about 30 miles from Big Sandy, MT. Jeff was raised on the family farm in Harlem and later moved to Chinook. We were married in September of 2009 and have two children, Charley Anne (11) and Tyson (9). Growing up within the ag industry taught us the fundamentals of hard-work, dedication and respect. We are raising our children to understand the value of good cattle and an honest day’s work. We are grateful for our family and friends that have supported us throughout the years and continue to do so today.
Our hay base is on the family farm in Harlem which is owned with Jeff’s brother, Mike and their uncle, Jim. The farm was started by Jeff’s grandparents and expanded by Jeff’s dad throughout the years. Started mainly as a sheep operation, the farm is now used to raise alfalfa and grass hay, barley and oats by flood irrigation. Along with our registered herd and the farm in Harlem, we run some commercial cows and operate an irrigated farm between Chinook and Harlem Montana.
We are it – we don’t have any hired labor or extra hands on a daily basis. Therefore, our cattle have to be easy to handle and manage. Our family and friends help us out during sale time and throughout the year as needed. All of our marketing material is designed by Christie through her freelance design business, 5N Designs llc. Everything from our print ads, cattle pictures, sale catalogs, website and social media marketing is produced in-house.
