The Brand
As the sun rises on a Saturday morning, a Cowboy pulls on his work boots, grabs a slice of bacon and heads out to his fields. While most are still sleeping, a 5 a.m. wakeup call is routine for this Cowboy’s weekend.
Iconic cattle with white faces and red bodies roam his pastures, waiting for a glimpse of their cowboy to join them in the field with buckets of feed in tow.
There’s always work to be done on the farm, and duties don’t segregate on the time of day or day of week. It always seems the most urgent duties happen to fall on a Saturday night or early Sunday morning, making it impossible for the Cowboy to plan ahead a fun night out with his friends.
But, that is the choice he made and savors each day he has the opportunity to tend to the land and his herd.
This cowboy isn’t just any cowboy – he raises Hereford cattle and is a proud supporter of the
Certified Hereford Beef program.
His blood, sweat and tears are all worth it because he knows a little girl in New York City went to bed with a full stomach last night.
And a little boy in Minneapolis.
And a family in Dallas.
Few know his name, but many are thankful for the tireless job he performs with integrity.
While this Cowboy is few in numbers, his impact reaches across the United States and into international borders.
This Cowboy – full of passion and love for what he does – is the
Certified Hereford Beef brand.
