In 1961
Patsy Cline went “Crazy.”
Toots Mansfield wrote the last word on “Calf Roping.”
The Raised Wild Texas Ranch branded its first steer.
“We are a 3rd generation family owned and operated beef cattle ranch since 1961.
We didn't know what else to say about ourselves.
Then, one week before the 3rd generation started work at the ranch, our ranch manager wrote this:”
Looking at the ranch from my perspective:
This place is a unique piece of art that continues to evolve. Almost as if you paint a picture today and tomorrow you resurface your canvas with a new one. These pictures will continuously create new thoughts, it often sheds light of hope and inspiration, can bring you joy, and sometimes frustration. Frustration grows when trying to resist the flow of nature as society encourages us to do. You have to remember just as the seasons change the mood of the ranch does as well.
As humans we have the ability to adjust and cope to our environment and for me that is the only way to survive out here. I say this for simply the fact that it takes someone with determination, self motivation, and a deep understanding to thrive here.
The family displays a deep passion for this place and its future. Passion may not be felt at first glance, but I believe passion for this place grows along the way. Just as the canvas gets thicker with each new painting, the roots of the ranch grow deeper and stronger within you.
As manager I would be thrilled to have the next generation as a part of the team to keep the canvas together.
We hope to share our passion with you.
