Gather around the campfire friends, for we have a story to tell....
It begins in 1965 when Jerry & Jane Hammond had a vision for a thriving cattle business as they were looking over the rolling golden hills of the Gabilan Mountains. It was a rugged area, yet richly beautiful. They had partnered with folks to work a ranch in Morgan Hill and decided to go out on their own and purchase the Summit Ranch, a 4000 acre ranch where they could raise a family and a few cows too. In the late 80's, they were able to buy a neighboring ranch and grow the Summit to 6500 acres.
The Hammond Family's vision was taking form and it was going to be truly unique. Not only did they wish to raise some of the best beef this side of the Mississippi, but they also made a commitment to be stewards of this land. Believing that caring for it was equally important as caring for the cattle. They have always strived to strike a balance between providing nourishment to its livestock and honoring the needs of mother nature.
In 2020, their youngest son, Mitch Hammond recognized a new need. A need to purify the Ranching distribution process by offering top-quality beef directly to you. But Mitch wanted to take things a step further by creating an inclusive affair where every aspect from breeding, to raising, to tending, and harvesting the beef is painstakingly looked after by The Hammond Family right on the Ranch.
Hammond Livestock Company is now a 3500 acre ranch dedicated to sustainability and low stress cattle management. Mitch also decided to invite others to experience the operation by opening the Ranch to visitors with The Ranch Retreat cabins, Farm-to-Fork cookouts, Concerts in the Cow Pasture, and by providing resources both online and in-person to educate others of the importance of balanced agriculture.
So today you can not only purchase 1/4, 1/2, or Whole Primal Cuts of grass-fed beef directly from the Hammond Ranch, you can add some extra flavor by coming to the Ranch and experiencing a vacation like-no-other.
