New fence being installed between Western Pasture and Pond. Cattle will have access to all Western Pastures while allowing newly-tilled and seeded area surrounding Pond time for maturation.

The beautiful view of lush, green pastures as you enter the ranch.
The tall, beautiful grass keeps our 2,000+ lb bull, George, happy- and well fed.
The grasses around the pond are growing by the day, and attracting wildlife such as Canadian Geese, turkeys, and deer.
Many components are required for an in situ water monitoring system, which allows us to track the flow of water through the ranch, as well as our own water usage within the ranch.
Spring is in full swing! With longer, warmer days, and intense solar radiation, the Fruit Orchard Garden is growing rapidly. Pictured are romaine lettuce (top) and white onions (bottom). Have a desire to grow your own fresh produce? There is still about 1 acre of tilled land available for all the family to plant their favorite fruits and vegetables, and try out your green thumb!
With warmer weather, fertilizer, and an irrigation overhaul, the pastures are growing by the day. Heralding the fields loosens grass roots, allowing for new growth to spring up more readily.
Broadcasting of oat and rye seeds attracts many local visitors to the new pond. The new fence at the tree line in the Western Pasture prevents cattle from damaging the ecology of this newly-developed area, and encourages wildlife to make a home for themselves here.
Beautiful pictures. Ranch looks great. I just moved to Alabama to be close to Gina (Myers)

Grandma, I am bummed you won’t be there this year! Don’t worry I will taste test all the good Italian food for you and report back.
We had another fantastic family reunion. Thank you Gary, Phil and Carey.
Your love and support keep us together in the Dellaragione tradition.
