How Niman Ranch’s Structure Supports Independent Family Farmers
We provide a robust and growing national marketplace for our family farmers and ranchers to sell their livestock.
-
Providing a Growing National Marketplace
Rural areas do not provide a big enough marketplace for most farmers to make a living. Our program helps them bridge that gap – raise livestock on their family land while earning enough to support their family and local community.
-
Paying a Premium
We pay our family farmers and ranchers a premium to raise animals to our strict protocols.
-
Investing in Long-Standing Partnerships
We invest in a long-standing, committed partnership with each farm. These families are part of our family, and we consider them in every decision we make.
-
Building Relationships
Our on-the-ground team visits each farm and ranch regularly to build relationships and make sure the animals and land are treated according to our standards.
