Livestock Farms & Ranches in Nebraska

Branched Oak Creamery

Branched Oak Farm raises a growing herd of Jersey cows on 240 certified organic acres in Raymond, Nebraska, 16 miles from downtown Lincoln, selling everything it produces locally — seasonal cheeses include quark, fresh mozzarella, Camembert, Alpine varieties, and Gouda. Management-intensive rotational grazing and Animal Welfare Approved practices back the on-farm "Inconvenience Store" (open Tuesdays and Saturdays), Lincoln's Old Cheney Road market, and local grocers, with raw milk available too.

Circle P Farm/Darn Good Goat Soap

A small family dairy-goat farm near Ashland that turns its goats' milk into handmade Darn Good Goat Soap in scents like lavender. The farm also sells free-range eggs and runs a small campground on site; soap ships or can be picked up by arrangement. Online orders go through circlepfarmne.com and the Darn Good Goat Soap shop.

Classen Land & Cattle Mercantile

Jordan and Travis Classen sell 100% Nebraska Angus beef from their storefront at 237 S 2nd Street in Albion. The family keeps ownership of every animal from birth through slaughter, a two-year process, and feeds cattle crops grown on their own ground. Beef comes as individual cuts, bundles, or quarter, half, and whole shares, with shipping available. Find them Thursdays in Albion or at the Bellevue and College View farmers markets.

DH Longhorn

The Linquist family raises Texas Longhorn cattle on native hard-grass prairie near Page in northeast Nebraska, now into the fourth generation. Their dry-aged beef is USDA-inspected, hormone-free, and finished mostly on pasture and prairie hay; grain stays under 10 percent of the diet and the cattle never enter a feedlot. Longhorn beef runs leaner and higher in omega-3s than Angus. Cuts sell through their online store.

DS Family Farm

Malcolm, NE

DS Family Farm is Doug and Sheila Garrison's pasture operation on US Highway 34 in Malcolm, Nebraska, offering peace of mind through pasture-grazed beef, pigs, poultry, and sheep raised with regenerative, low-stress, multi-species grazing on tallgrass prairie. Their long-running blog digs deep into soil health, nutrition, and bionutrient beef testing — evidence of farmers who think as much as they graze.

Esch Cattle Company

Unadilla, NE

It's nice to meet you! About 5 years ago, Hannah founded Oak Barn Beef to start sharing her family's Premium, Nebraska Beef with people across the United States.

Oak Barn Beef has expanded since then and now ships to customers in all 50 states.

Regenerative practices build healthy soil, healthy animals, and healthy people, with quarter to full cows and bundles shipping free to families nationwide.
