For us it is all about serving God, learning and growing. Know better, do better. We always ask ourselves “Am I doing my best?”

We apply this to our personal veterinary business, cattle raising business, and vacation home business. You can always find us working long days, and attending continued education conferences, learning and growing!

What our guests have to say about their experience at our Guest Ranch

  • “Sitting in a westward facing lawn chair and the sun slowly creeps behind the mountains, you realize that the scenes around you are as true today as they were thousands of years ago. As the last little bits of light retreat from the great hughes of grass unfolding from the mountains, you can remove yourself from the stillness of the 21stt century life and, if only for a small time, step back into a world that runs on its own accord and not the whims of humans. It’s a true credit to the Holt family for opening their property to us and being tremendous stewards of this land. I am a proud Texan and will always carry the flag for my state….but ain’t nothing as big and grand as this land up here. I hope the next folks to stay here allow themselves to unplug and see this land for what it is, Perfect!”

    David C. L. Austin, Texas

  • “There is nothing that comes close to the way this place makes you feel. Having a girl’s weekend here with family, going on adventures with Jessica are memories that will last a lifetime. With such a busy home life, coming here, enjoying the quiet and being surrounded by God makes you feel at home, at peace. We will be coming back multiple times in the future. Jessica, we cannot thank you enough for everything. This was a trip of a lifetime! You mean the world to us, thank you for directing me back. You are a shining light for Jesus.”

    Brandi Chambers and family

To oversee Drummond, my parents' and grandparents' home is so special! The house is comfortable and big enough for our growing family! Thank you so much for letting us stay! It is a highlight of our year. P.S also making friends with the cows!"

We have some helpful educational things we have put together on YouTube for you. Let us know if there is anything specific, you’d like to know more about.

  • Shop Meat

    We sell our meat directly off the farm, here in Lynden! We also ship meat. It really is impossible for me to be able to inventory every slice of meat on our website. We have no employees. This is all me, Jessica on top of my other responsibilities. If it says out of stock, I probably have it! If you’d like to purchase our beef, please call me directly or email me to set up a time to shop on the farm, have me gather up your order for farm pick up or shipping your meat. I do have an egg stand with a freezer in it, that I can leave your meat in for easy pickup. I will be happy to help you! (360)441-6422 or farmerjessie@gmail.com

  • Our Cattle

    Using top of the line genetics in the industry, the quality of our beef is what you will find at a five-star restaurant.

    We use top of the line genetics.

    A way I like to explain this to people…. You can go to a used car lot and buy a $500.00 car, or you can buy a BMW for a lot more money. Both are vehicles. Both are very different vehicles, and you get a lot more for your money with a BMW than a $500.00 car.

    We have the BMW version of genetics in the cattle industry. This is one of the many reasons our beef is expensive. It is very expensive to purchase.

    Science plays a huge role in our decision making by DNA testing every calf, tracking growth, marbling, maternal milk, docility etc. We call these EPD’s in cattle meaning, expected progeny differences. EPD's explained here!

    Our cattle are stress free; no added hormones, no added antibiotics and pasture raised.

    Our cattle are raised from conception to harvest by us. That is a big deal. We are personally with them every day. We are helping them during calving, weaning and growing. Our cows’ lives are lived in a more normal, natural setting. They are not overcrowded, have fresh water, trees for shade and to scratch on. They are fed a healthier diet with more forage, therefor having a healthy rumen (stomach) and less illness.
