Since we opened, we’ve witnessed The Ranch become a gathering place for our small community and those lucky enough to pass through it. We have loved seeing our family-run restaurant cater to the needs of the area and harbor so many memories. However, our commitment to you doesn’t stop at your brief experience dining in.
Regenerative farming has been an ongoing undertaking on the farm, and in order to continue making bold moves that will help the planet, we need people to understand our mission. We’re bringing that education to The Ranch, starting with the installation of our live beehive! This addition not only supports our cause but also allows you to get an up-close look at the magic of pollinators.
Bees have always been our mighty superstars–they’re responsible for pollination and biodiversity–we need these guys to stay healthy so we can grow healthy, nutritious food. Our hope is that this live beehive installation will remind people everywhere of the integral roles that our pollinators play.
“The beehive is our commitment to try and educate our customers about how regenerative farming at scale can be done. We love the lessons we can learn from nature–especially our bees.” –Austin Allred, Owner of The Ranch by Royal Family Farming
The Ranch’s hive is safely encased with an exit point at the roof of the building, allowing our bees to come and go as needed to maintain their needs as naturally as if they were on the corner of one of our fields.
We are excited to share this first step with you, and can’t wait for you to experience it for yourself. In the future, we hope to bring more to light on how our regenerative system can change the world for the better.
“We will continue to find ways to educate and share the life we love, especially as it highlights God's beautiful creation.” –Austin Allred
