Double K Ranch

Double K Ranch raises Hereford cattle in Litchville, ND, in Barnes County and the Red River Valley near Fargo. They follow nationally recognized registry guidelines and perform annual genetic and health screenings to maintain herd vitality and sound structure. Nutrition plans include rotational grazing with native grasses and necessary supplemental mineral and vitamin feeding schedules tailored to each stage of growth.

Calves grow on open prairie pasture with daily handling that encourages early socialization, gentle temperament and readiness for varied climates. The ranch operates on multi-generational farmland, reflecting a family approach to animal stewardship and long-term land care. Simple timber barns, wide paddocks and shaded loafing areas offer comfort through seasonal changes and support natural behaviors in a low-stress environment. A network of neighboring ranches provides opportunities to exchange knowledge on forage management and animal care, reinforcing community-based best practices.
