Murphy Family Ranch, LLC operates on a historic 435-acre property in Sonora, California, raising Akaushi and Wagyu cattle in Tuolumne County, about an hour east of Stockton in the Sierra Nevada foothills. Robert Mackey and his family are descendants of five Murphy brothers who homesteaded this land in 1862 under the Homestead Act, making it one of the longer-standing family ranches in the region.

After decades of disuse following the early 1960s, the Mackey family began actively restoring and rebuilding the ranch in 2015. Since then they have overhauled the fencing across the full acreage, constructed stables, hay barns, roads, wells, and water storage infrastructure to support a working multi-species operation.

The cattle program centers on purebred, registered Akaushi alongside F1 Wagyu cattle, with Red Angus females retained as a complementary maternal line. All cattle for sale in California from this program are raised on open pasture in what the ranch describes as a healthy, humane, and sustainable manner. Registered Akaushi animals carry third-party DNA verification, providing buyers with documented genetic integrity. Those searching for DoonCool or Akaushi cattle in California will find that Murphy Family Ranch brings a rare combination of deep local history and a deliberately rebuilt, multi-generational cattle program to the Sonora foothills.
