FEED OUR VETS

Providing Locally Raised Beef to Veterans & Seniors in Need

Feed Our Vets is one of our most meaningful community programs.
Each year, we donate locally raised, ranch-fed beef to veterans and seniors who could use support with high-quality food. This program is entirely funded by donors and our community.

The beef comes from animals raised right here on our Wyoming ranch—handled with respect and care. This is not a rescue program; it is a food support initiative designed to honor the people who have served our country and those in our community who may be struggling.

If you know a veteran or senior who would benefit from being added to our beef donation list, you can nominate them below.

Your support makes this possible

Thank you.

Feed Our Vets

We raise high quality, small-batch beef here on the ranch. 10% of each beef that we process is donated and hand-delivered to local veterans and seniors who could not otherwise afford beef often.

Golden Reins

Fund

We are bursting at the seams and growing. In order to take in more animals in need, we need more room. We are raising funds to purchase and build a bigger facility where we can house 100+ dogs and more livestock.

Mail Call

Snail mail is a great way to stay in touch. It slows things down, keeps the skill of writing alive, and is a great way to connect with seniors who may be lonely. In our Mail Call program we connect vets and seniors with a penpal who would like to keep up on old school communication.
