Wetherell Ranch, Inc.

Good morning all. It's been a while since we posted anything. We are all safe, healthy and happy here on the Farm. It's funny, it's become obvious to us that we already lived a mostly social isolated life, only going to town for supplies and essentials, so not too much has changed here for us. The exciting news is.......it's calving season and boy do we have some cuties this year.

We can't remember a time when there has been more Activity here at the Ranch. Michelle has had all the 4H kids working on projects for more than a week in preparation for the Fair. We are so proud of all these kids! Shout out to Talyn, Cadence, Emma, Elli, Harleigh, Hailey, Caroline, Timber, Layton, Mason & Taylee. These are just a few of the 4H kids we have had the pleasure of working with. Way to go kids. And the future grows...........

Employee Spotlight. Lucas is every boss's dream. He is BIG, young & STRONG. Lucas had been with us for about a year now. He is Rich's main Farm Hand in the mornings and on his days off no one can fill those size 15 shoes. Lucas always comes to work with a smile and a ready to get it done attitude. On his off time he is studying Law Enforcement at College of the Redwoods. This guy is worth his weight in Gold. Say Hi to Lucas Gugliemini.

Employee Spotlight. We don't have enough positive things to say about this guy. Lupe has been with us for 5 years. He is our Chief Herdsman & is vital to our day to day operations. He knows each Dairy Cow in the herd like they were his pets. He came to us with years of Dairy experience, knows the best care practices for our girls and is a perfect fit at the Farm. Lucky for us he has what Rich calls 'Cow Sense'. Thanks Lupe, we could not do it with you. And the future grows...........

Employee Spotlight. Cadence joined the Wetherell Ranch team almost 3 years ago. Wanting to ignite the love of farming Spark inside this young girl we decided to find work for her around the Farm. She could not even pull the barn cleaning hose thru out the barn when she started. She has grown both in size ,she can take that hose anywhere now & farming knowledge over the last few years. Last year she halter broke a mature Dairy cow in 3 weeks and won the title of Grand Champion Dairy Cow at the DN County Fair. This is Cadence in her 4H gear with her Horse Star visiting Tractor Supply after the 4th of July Parade yesterday. This girl here is going to move mountains, you watch. We are so proud to have her as part of our team. A big Salute to Cadence. And the future grows.......

Good Morning All. We have a lot happening here at the Dairy & we need another body around here to get things done. ISO An Employee. Must like cows, getting dirty and hard work. Call 487-0965 and leave a message, Rich will give you a call back.... Thanks! See more

It's long over due. The last porch swing broke over 4 years ago. What a wonderful Father's Day Gift to Rich from Brent.

Views like this are priceless, one of the perks of being a Dairy Farmer. A shout out to Amy Boatman for taking these pictures and sending them to us.

We are so proud to be the Swine Project Sponsor for the Del Norte Community 4H Club. The kids picked up their cute lil piglets today in anticipation of the DN County Fair. They have lots of work to do between now and the Fair. We enjoy watching every minute. Way to go Harleigh, Talyn, Ellie, Tyren, Hailey & Vivian.

No foolin'. Today is Rich's birthday. He is the corner stone of our operation. No matter what task needs to done, he is game, big or small. There is no job he has not done in his 40 years of working on the Ranch. Join us in wishing this terrific guy a Happy Birthday. We couldn't do it with out you.
