Purchasing Pastured Meat –
You will also be able to take home our grassfed and pasture-raised meats. We recommend purchasing your meat order ahead of time by visiting our ONLINE STORE and selecting “Spartan Race Pick-up” at checkout. Our meats are frozen and will stay solid in a cooler for 4-6 hours and for 4 hours in our insulated bags that are available on our online store.
About the Ranch –
Paicines Ranch is a historic 7,600-acre ranch that uses regenerative agricultural principles to regenerate ecosystems while growing delicious, healthy, nutritious food for our community. The Spartan Race will be held on 600 acres of the ranch. We practice Holistic Management and planned grazing while producing 100% grass-fed-and-finished lamb and beef and pastured pork and turkey. Using animal integration in cropping systems, our 25-acre polyculture vineyard is designed to be “managed” by sheep through grazing and pruning. We also host weddings, corporate retreats, and educational workshops at our ranch headquarters. In February of 2023, we launched the Overlook, our commercial kitchen and dining hall where we feature our pastured and grassfed meats, along with locally, regeneratively sourced produce. We prepare meals for all of our ranch events out of the Overlook, please visit the Upcoming Events page on our website to experience our dining at Paicines Ranch!
More About What We Do –
Paicines Ranch is a part of the NoRegrets Initiative, a relationship-centered approach to land and asset management that uses a variety of capital – ecological, financial and social – to grow the health of agricultural soils and communities in North America. Our educational non-profit is the Paicines Ranch Learning Center which educates, inspires, and connects people with new ideas and networks that advance healthy soil and healthy communities.
