Echo Valley Ranch

Echo Valley Ranch, Murray grey cattle, Sandy, Oregon, in the Mount Hood corridor near Portland. With more than a decade of breeding experience, they maintain registrations with recognized breed associations and follow thorough health-testing protocols to ensure sound genetics. Their cattle graze on lush pastures year-round, and daily hands-on interaction helps calves adapt to low-stress handling.

This family-run ranch reflects a commitment to sustainable husbandry and soil health, rotating pastures to support local ecosystems. Randy and Michelle Carmony participate in the Beef Quality Assurance program and provide deep-bedded loafing areas for winter comfort. Their herd reflects careful selection for temperament and robust health, with many parents returning to the breeding program. Each year the Carmonys host local schools for educational visits to share insights into modern cattle management. The rolling fields and historic barnyard create a calm environment that benefits both cattle and caretakers.
