Camp Fire Ranch

Camp Fire Ranch, Wagyu cattle, Leander, TX, is nestled in Williamson County and the Texas Hill Country near Austin. The rancher, Andy Crites, has more than a decade of experience raising Wagyu on open pastures, maintains active American Wagyu Association membership and follows health testing standards. Calves are raised alongside their dams on rotational grazing paddocks to support digestive health, and the ranch emphasizes early, gentle handling to foster calm temperaments.

A decades-old farmstead with weathered barns, Camp Fire Ranch showcases rolling grasslands and oak trees that provide natural shade throughout the day. Its small herd size allows for personalized care routines and regular veterinary checkups, and every animal benefits from a balanced diet fortified with essential minerals. Visitors often note the ranch’s inviting atmosphere and Andy’s depth of knowledge about Wagyu genetics. Sustainable pasture management and regular soil testing help maintain nutrient-rich fields year-round.
