Crown River Ranch LLC

Crown River Ranch LLC raises wagyu cattle in Paradise, TX, in North Central Texas near Dallas. Owner Ryan Tewksbury has focused on balanced genetics for over a decade and maintains herd health with regular veterinary screenings and genetic evaluations. Animals graze on natural grass pastures and are socialized daily, living in open pens with access to shade and fresh water.

The ranch’s approach blends traditional ranching practices with careful tracking of pedigrees, and several animals have earned regional show recognition. Many local chefs praise meat consistency for marbling and flavor, reflecting the commitment to responsible stewardship. Pasture rotations follow a planned schedule to encourage soil health and reduce stress on the herds. The ranch operates creek-fed watering systems and solar-powered facilities to reduce environmental impact. Herds are selected for traits like weaning weight and marbling score, providing consistent performance for breeding stock and feeder cattle.
