The Blue Goose Cattle Company Ltd. owns and operates a diverse mix of several extensive cow/calf ranches, multiple medium and large grass yearling operations, four breeding heifer locations, as well as hay, haylage, and silage production enterprises in the BC Southern Interior. Approximately 1.5 million acres are currently under the Blue Goose Cattle umbrella.

Having been established in 1993, The Blue Goose Cattle Company Ltd. has grown from a family owned working cattle ranch to what currently is a fully vertically integrated, certified organic entity, from the birth of a calf to the plate of the retail consumer, all under our own Blue Goose brand.
