O'Steen Ranch 66

O'Steen Ranch 66 raises full-blood Wagyu cattle on open pastures in Mcalpin, FL, north Florida near Gainesville. The owner, Raymond O'Steen, follows breed association guidelines, registers each calf, and performs routine health screenings to support herd well-being. Calves are born in open pasture, where they gain early exposure to handling, and grazing rotation ensures balanced forage.

Each animal follows a balanced nutrition plan that blends fresh forage with mineral supplements, and they receive daily observation for any health concerns. The ranch draws on decades of experience to maintain consistent temperament and marbling without overcrowding. Fields are rotated through rolling hills on 200 acres that mimic natural grazing cycles and preserve soil health. Visits to the ranch reveal a calm environment and hands-on stewardship at every stage of growth. Local chefs appreciate the ranch’s approach to sustainable cattle management and balanced flavor profiles.
