In this episode of From the Pasture with Hired Hand, we sit down with Russell Freeman of Freeman Ranch, located in Yoder, Colorado. With roots dating back to 1899 under the ownership of Russell’s great-grandmother, Carolyn Freeman, the Freeman brand carries over 120 years of history, tradition, and dedication to quality ranching.Russell and his wife Jamie, along with their three sons Whitt, Henry, and Jack, continue the family legacy—balancing day-to-day ranching duties while raising top-quality horses and Texas Longhorn cattle. From responsibly raised, drug-free beef that serves the Front Range of Colorado, to champion Longhorn genetics like Winning Honor, measuring an incredible 93 inches tip-to-tip and ranked among the top four in the world, the Freeman Ranch story is one of heritage, hard work, and excellence.Join us as we talk about the Freeman family’s deep ranching history, their cattle and horse operations, and how they continue to uphold the values and vision set more than a century ago.http://www.thefreemanranch.com/Send us Fan MailFrom the Pasture with Hired Hand:Hired Hand Websites (@hiredhandwebsites): https://hiredhandsoftware.comHired Hand Live (@hiredhandlive): https://hiredhandlive.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hiredhandwebsites/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HiredHandSoftwareTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hiredhandwebsitesNewsletter: https://www.hiredhandsoftware.com/resources/stay-informed
