Greetings from Hornitos Beef!

I hope each and everyone of you are safe and well. September and October have come to an end. Here in Hornitos we like to listen and watch mother nature for the signs of changing seasons. With welcome Hearts we see the large slow moving Tarantulas making their way through the fields and on the roads. The kids and I like to count how many we see as we go about our daily tasks. To us this means Fall is on the horizon and rain to come.

Each year cattle is driven out of the mountains where they graze all summer. The Yosemite Visitors Bureau made a video of that adventure and we would like to share it with you. Just click on the picture below and you will be taken to a page so you can watch it!

We finally received our freezer trailer. This will help us provide safe transportation and delivery for our USDA inspected Ranch Raised Beef. We are not able to ship our boxes yet. If you have a meat up request please give us a call to arrange a convenient and clean location.
