The cattle at Colvin Ranch were very mellow and friendly I felt honored when they all came up to look at me as I photographed them. The entire herd surrounding me was a little scary due to there massive size but also quite beautiful!  http://www.colvinranch.com/

The Colvin Ranch is a family owned and operated cattle ranch located in south Thurston County, Washington, near the small town of Tenino. The ranch was homesteaded by Ignatius Colvin, who came to Washington on the Oregon Trail in 1851 from Boone County, Missouri, and is one of the oldest ranches in the county still owned by the original family.

Our very hearty but lean “Ragu Cantinelli” is made with all organic ingredients with the exception of hormone free, free range, lean ground beef from Colvin Ranch.

 The recipe it is based on comes from the kitchen of the lovely Anna Cantinelli in Fiesole, Italy. http://lisascottowen.com/2011/03/174/
