Only breeder of endangered CVM sheep Texas

Review of Pendleton Ranch by TexasRealFood

In 2014, Ron Plis and Kathey DeOrnellas embarked on their journey at Pendleton Ranch, a century-old homestead. Their mission: to restore the land's natural beauty. Clearing invasive plants paved the way for the diverse range of animals they now raise. Their farm boasts CVM/Romeldale sheep, prized for both lamb meat and wool. Additionally, they raise heritage hogs, Dexter cattle, and free-range chickens. As the sole Texas breeder of the endangered California Variegated Mutant sheep, Pendleton Ranch offers roving, yarn, and fleece, with similar products derived from Angora goats and alpacas. Visit them at Denton Community Market from April to November to support their conservation efforts and enjoy their exceptional products.

Farming Methods, Practices & Certifications

Biodynamic

Biodynamic

Biodynamic agriculture is based heavily on Rudolph Steiner’s 1924 lectures, which are rooted in his spiritual and philosophical theories. This movement is defined as a holistic, ecological, and ethical approach to farming, gardening, food, and nutrition. Steiner’s lectures to farmers emphasised a new way to integrate scientific understanding with a recognition of spirit in nature. Biodynamics has continued to develop and evolve since the 1920s, and is practiced in differing degrees throughout the world. Many of the principles emphasise the farm as a living organism on all levels, biodiversity, and poly-culture ecological systems incorporating plants and animals, as well as planting in relation to the moon’s cycles throughout the month.

Grass Fed / Pastured Grass Fed / Pastured

Grass Fed / Pastured

The term “grass fed” (as opposed to grain fed) refers to meat obtained from cows that were raised on a diet of grass and other forage, such as clover; situated in pasture and, when fresh grass is unavailable, hay. This helps to denote the difference between livestock that has been raised in feedlots and generally fed a diet of soy and corn, versus animals that have had access to their natural feeding environment in pasture, which contains grasses, wildflowers, and herbs. This term overlaps with “pasture-raised” and will usually be seen together. Grass-fed beef is also believed to taste better, and be better for the environment, too. There are several organizations that offer a certification for Grass Fed, such as the American Grassfed Association, Certified Grassfed by A Greener World, and Pasture for Life, to name a few.

Naturally Grown Naturally Grown

Naturally Grown

Some of the businesses listed in our directory will be using the same principles as Certified Naturally Grown farmers, but without the certification. Certifications can often be expensive and time consuming for most farmers to participate in, and therefore we feel it is important to acknowledge those who practice good land stewardship, without certification.

Regenerative Agriculture Regenerative Agriculture

Regenerative Agriculture

Regenerative agriculture is a conservation and rehabilitation approach to food and farming. Some of its key focuses are topsoil regeneration, increased biodiversity, improving the water cycle, enhancing ecosystems, supporting biosequestration, increasing resilience to climate change, and improving the health and vitality of farm soil. Practices involved with regenerative farming include recycling as much farm waste as possible and adding composting materials from sources outside of the farm.
