Dear Hereford Enthusiasts

 
 Welcome to our 15th Annual September Online Sale. Hard to believe we have another year behind us but it didn’t go by without a major milestone. This past March, our family lost an icon with the passing of Alice Richardson in her 92’nd year. Mother, grand mother and great grand mother, she was the keeper of the main Richardson Ranch house the past 70 years. Mother of five, she not only did the Ranch books for years but also found time to groom dogs, started a boarding kennel, wrapped meat, worked reception in a Veterinary hospital, sat on the Regional Hospital board, the Cemetery board, the Fall Fair board, and even the Farmers Institute. Like her mother before her, she loved to sew and weave but her greatest passion was quilting, which she continued to do literally till the day of her passing. Gone but not forgotten.

This past year has seen more weather challenges. Our subsoil moisture is nonexistent in spite of big storm systems with high winds moving through last winter, but we did manage to put up 85% of our normal silage crop. After cutting back on cows last year and being on top of pasture management we are moving into weaning time confident that we can likely get through this coming winter without purchasing more feed.
With fewer cows and a calf crop heavy to bull calves we are pleased to offer as an added lot, the pick of our 2024 bull calf crop, along with both heifer calves, bred heifers and embryos.

The Richardson family is entering into our 107th year of raising beef on Haida Gwaii. We are proud to still have three generations involved on the farm every day. While it may not be the best place in the world to raise cattle, it is arguably the best place to raise a family. Thanks again to the whole family for all their contributions which make it possible for us to raise and market pedigree Hereford cattle and genetics.
