Willow Creek Ranch is firmly committed to the most humane treatment of livestock, and providing the most nutritious beef, pork and poultry products possible. For these reasons, and many others, we are also committed to being “Pasture-Pure”, allowing the cycle of nature to enrich our pastures and provide for our herd.
As a family farm, we made the decision long ago that we would not be a “factory farm”. Instead, we embraced the concepts of natural ranching, providing our cattle, poultry, and swine with the freedom to graze the land. In a nutshell, happy animals in a natural environment create the most nutritious and delicious products available.
The Ofte family, fourth generation farmers, live and work on the ranch. We personally handle all the daily chores, from moving the cattle to new pastures, gathering farm fresh eggs, feeding the pigs, and yes, even the less glamorous aspects of ranching and farming. It’s our little piece of heaven on earth, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Wisconsin’s Virgin Driftless Region: Home to Willow Creek Ranch
Willow Creek Ranch is nestled in Wisconsin’s Virgin Driftless Region. “Driftless”, because this area, unlike any other, was untouched by glaciation. The result is a land that is rich and fertile, renowned for its bluffs and coulees, its rivers, and creeks, its glacier-fed springs, and is virtually the same as it was millennia ago. Here the grass is a rich, natural green, full of the nutrients that nourish our livestock. Our farm is blessed with seven springs that provide our animals and ouselves with water naturally filtered through hundreds of feet of limestone.
Here at Willow Creek Ranch, we nourish ourselves and our livestock with what nature provides, and what is naturally the best that the earth has to offer.

Some Thoughts From People Just Like You:
“Just wanted to send you a note from a very happy customer(s) family. I baked one of our hams tonight for dinner (w/baked potatoes and baked beans). Everyone loved the ham. My wife and daughter both commented that they don’t usually like ham, but this one was great. Not so salt and watery, my wife commented. I think the simple organic processing and good local farm raised fresh air hog makes all the difference. Thanks for being one of our farmers.”
