The Klopper Family

"I have to tell you we had hamburgers last night and they were out of this world. Your beef is very lean and has so much flavor.

I come from a cattle ranch family in Texas. I do not each much meat here in the city. The flavor is just not the same and the texture is so different. I have been really craving a good hamburger and your beef fit the bill. I hope some day to visit your beautiful ranch. "

Bear River Valley Beef

Our Ranch is located in the heart of the Bear River Valley among lush green pastures, with breathtaking views of the Valley and the Pacific Ocean from the top of the ranch. Located in Northern California's Humboldt County, Bear River Valley Beef is situated 15 miles south of the Victorian Village of Ferndale and 5 miles from the ocean, in the heart of giant Redwood country.

Our family, Hugo and Elizabeth Klopper, and sons Ryan, Aaron and Matthew are the third generation to work these ranches. We raise all natural, 100% Grass Fed Beef, on pasture 100% of the time.

Our goal is to provide you with, not only the most tender and succulent beef to ever reach your table, but also the healthiest choice for you and your family. Our cattle are born and raised on our ranch and finished on green summer pastures in Ferndale, just 15 miles away.

When you purchase our pasture raised beef you help support our Family Farm and preserve rural agriculture land with sustainable agriculture practices. This is land we deeply care about, where we live and raise our children. The Grass Fed Beef we market is the same beef we serve our family and you can rest assured that our beef is safe to eat every day.

Raising animals on pasture with "all grass, all the time" will always be the gold standard (Jo Robinson, Pasture Perfect, Page 59). This method produces food that is better for us, keeps the animals on their natural native diet (no grains or animal by-products), and uses pasture to its maximum potential. This practice ensures environmentally friendly agriculture, which helps to sustain small Family Farms and promotes a healthy ecosystem.
