Nestled in the foothills of the majestic East Humboldt Mountain range, Brough Ranch got its start in 1947. Ferris and Marlene Brough, along with Ferriss parents, Owen and Ivy and two of his brothers, Owen and Robert, bought a small ranch on the south end of Clover Valley. Ferris and Marlene ran the day-to-day operations for many years. They specialized in a commercial cow/calf operations.
Wilde and Sherry- Current Owners and Operators and 3rd Generation
Ferris and Marlenes son, Wilde, worked on and off the ranch until 1986, when Wilde and his wife, Sherry purchased additional property in Clover Valley. They then formed Brough Partnership. In 2009 they pivoted to a stocker operation. At about the same time they purchased their first Wagyu cattle and started breeding heifers to the smaller birth weight wagyu bulls. this allowed those heifers to have an easier time birthing their first calves. This also gave them an opportunity to produce another line of quality beef. Wilde and Sherry raised their 5 children : Jeff, Brian, Emily, Jenna & Jordan on the ranch where they taught them all the value of hard work, love of animals, self motivation, and many other valuable life lessons that have made each and everyone one of their children successful in their endeavors.
