OUR STORY

We are just two people who wanted to know more about the food we eat and where it comes from. The idea of raising and growing our own food is what started our journey of selling meats and ranch products to people who may not have a ranch or even good ranch access. There is a disconnect between people and their food, and we just wanted to get back to basics. We raise lambs, highland cattle, chickens for farm fresh eggs, honey bees, and seasonal vegetables here at the Spotted Ass Ranch. We also work closely with other ranchers to provide you with items we cannot raise ourselves but align with our core values. We believe that the products are directly influenced by the care we give to our livestock & our land.

The Spotted Ass Ranch is a gem, located on the edge of the small town of Plentywood, MT, population approx 1800. The ranch itself is located “Up North” of our town, in our county, the state, and the nation, thus the registered brand UN bar. Owned by the Zeidler family since 1969, it was used as a hobby donkey ranch for years, as well as a home for the family rodeo horses. Local kids from over the years, have told us different stories about their time playing there and catching frogs in the creek. It is fun to hear about what went on there before we lived there. Wynne’s Grandpa, Barr Zeidler was one of the original card carrying Spotted Ass members, and therefore he must own a few!! Notably it is the only breed of animal that Montana has “created” as a registered breed. It still continues to this day as the American Council of Spotted Asses, we actually still have his original brass membership card.

Our ranch is well known by this quaint community, and we would like it to also be known beyond that! Plentywood is unique in many ways, it is a gateway to Canada, a hunting mecca, and has amazing dry land agriculture. Along with everything wonderful that Montana has to offer, we also appreciate the clean skies, open prairie, vast ranch lands and small town charm.

We hope to share more and more of our small ranch lifestyle with everyone!

Plentywood, MT
