About Us
Our Story
Our ranch has been our family since 1879, our family members moved into the area from Colorado in 1879 and begun homesteading and purchasing the land that we are blessed to ranch on today. Started in 1904 and incorporated in 1905, our family founded the Riggs Cattle Company when, at its prime, included over 6,000 head of cattle that grazed on over 100,000 acres of Riggs family land.
Customers supporting the ranch by purchasing our beef are helping us to ensure future generations of the Riggs Family are able to continue what 6 generations ago started and we are blessed to continue ranching. We have begun placing land into conservation, continuing the philosophy of prior generations.
Their philosophy was to continue improving the ranching operations, as the ranch land was intended to be passed on from generation to generation. As Stark Riggs stated when asked if he would change anything if he could, he said, "I might change a few little things, but I'd never leave the ranch. I'll never sell out. I just want to make it better while I'm here and pass it down to my family for generations to come."
