Running Creek Ranch

Running Creek Ranch is a Limousin cattle farm in Elizabeth, Colorado, serving Elbert County and the Denver area. With several seasons of breeding experience, Joseph D Freund follows industry guidelines for genetic and health screening, including routine parentage verification and evaluation for common hereditary conditions.

The ranch combines rotational grazing with covered shelter, ensuring cattle have steady access to fresh pasture and protection from seasonal weather. Calves spend their first weeks alongside their mothers in open fields, benefiting from early socialization in a low-stress environment. Each herd receives supplemental hay and mineral blocks during winter months to maintain optimal condition. This hands-on approach supports well-balanced temperaments and sturdy conformation.

Situated on land that has been in family hands for decades, Running Creek Ranch reflects a commitment to sustainable practices and animal welfare. Customers note the calm demeanor of the cattle and the clear attention to health and environment in reviews.
