Our Story
Jeremy Vrooman grew up ranching and farming in upstate NY. Rebecca Mueller grew up in Chicago suburbs and moved to Chicago for her clothing making business. In 2004, Rebecca and Jeremy both started working for Skywest airlines. Jeremy as a pilot and Rebecca as a flight attendant. In 2018, Rebecca and Jeremy married and they lived between the Dallas base and Chicago base. In 2020, covid shut down Rebecca's clothing store in Chicago and both of our airline jobs were put on pause. We went from extremely busy to extremely not busy overnight.
That is when Jeremy found this beautiful 122 acre ranch and invited Rebecca to go explore it with him and consider moving there. Once we saw this ranch it was love at first sight and we decided to move there as soon as possible.
By the end of 2020, the ranch was up and running with cattle, sheep, goats, and chickens. Jeremy felt right at home and Rebecca loved it, even though she learned she had a phobia of grass hoppers. Jeremy did the ranch and Beckie rehabbed the inside of the 1988 farmhouse.
Fast forward to 2024, Jeremy and Rebecca are very busy running the ranch. We have hired help and have a wonderful and fun team that we face many challenges together daily. We have pulled cows out of sink holes, goats out of wells, picked up hundreds of chickens in the middle of the night after a storm that blew the coup away and many more adventures that have toughened the city girl up!
We work with many local producers to reach urban customers with the delivery and website infrastructure we are building.
We have grown to 1000 acres and are working our way to a closed cattle herd.
