The Cooper Hereford Ranch
At home under the Big Sky!
Our ranch sits nestled amidst the mountainous foothills of southwestern Montana, near where the Jefferson, Madison, and Gallatin rivers converge to form the headwaters of the mighty Missouri river.
One hundred years of hard work and good management have helped transform the original 480 acre homestead into a fertile 4,500 acre ranch. We harvest hay and grain on 1,800 acres of farmland with the remaining acreage serving as home to over 200 registered Line 1 Hereford cattle and 150 head of commercial cattle.
Our family continues to respect the beliefs and practices of previous generations while attempting to couple those with the progressive and innovative farming and ranching practices of today and future generations. We believe strongly in the value of a hard day’s work, and in treating our customers and peers with integrity and honesty.
