Big Bear Ranch, owned by Rainer and Gigi Krumsiek, is located just minutes outside of Horsefly, BC, in the foothills of the beautiful Cariboo Mountains, with hundreds of lakes and streams in the surrounding area.
On our 2000 acre biodynamic ranch, which is a mixture of certified organic pasture and sustainable managed forest, we believe in the importance of a holistic balance between the land, animals and people. This starts with naturally fertile soil to grow a variety of healthy plants that the animals graze to provide nutritious and great tasting meat.
Our humane animal husbandry includes low stress handling techniques and grazing on big pastures. We raise Angus/Hereford/Galloway-cross cattle, Tamworth/Duroc/Yorkshire-cross pigs, Bronze Breasted Turkeys, and Rhode Island-cross chickens. We also breed and train Icelandic Horses and grow our own vegetables.
All animals are pasture raised and the cattle are grass-fed and grass-finished. The cows calve on green grass, the pigs grow up in large pastures with trees and wallows, the chickens and turkeys are truly raised free range and the horses roam in big meadows.
For folks in the Lower Mainland and Metro Vancouver, we travel to Vancouver 6-8 times per year, delivering orders to our customers. Please visit our website for information about what is available, ordering, and delivery information. Big Bear Ranch – in harmony with nature.
