About Us
Tamara Ranch established in 1966 is family owned and operated. Tom and Margaret have built the success of their ranch around working with the natural systems and timelines of nature. Tamara Ranch beef is 100% grass-fed and finished on high-quality regenerative pasture. They practice without the use of hormones, antibiotics, or supplemental feed alternatives. The quality of life of their animals is of high priority, livestock is respected, stress is mitigated and end-of-life practice comes in the most natural way.

From Our Clients
I love you beef, I’m proud to tell everyone how your beef is raised and I know I’m doing good for my family, my community and my planet when I get Tamara beef.
Donovan Barsalou
My husband and I recently discovered Tamara Ranch Beef. We are very
pleased with the quality of this meat, as it is very flavourful and tender.
We love knowing that it is free of chemicals and most importantly that
the animals are treated humanely. The wide range of cuts to choose
from has provided us with a variety of meal options. With the cost of
beef in the grocery stores this is an affordable alternative.
Karen Filthaut and Bob Byron
The steak is perfect! We’ll get it again when we visit there. Everyone loves it. And also the beef bones are very tasty compared to what were buying at the local grocery.

we build biodiversity into our pastures with livestock and by natural means, rather than cultivation
