Willis D Ranch... Inspired by family

The Ranch

We are proud stewards of this beautiful Central California land, raising premium Wagyu beef with the care and dedication that only comes from a family owned operation.

At Willis D Ranch, we believe that great beef starts with strong values

  • Treat animals with respect
  • Care for land with sustainable land-management practices
  • Establish and maintain authentic relationships in our community and with our customers

We're not just ranchers; we're your neighbors. We take pride in offering wholesome, high quality beef. Our Wagyu cattle, both Japanese and American, are raised ethically in accordance with the highest standards for you.

When you choose Willis D Ranch, you get exceptional quality, and you become part of our extended ranch family. As a local business, we believe that community and integrity matter just as much as great taste.

At Willis D Ranch, we’re raising more than cattle, we’re raising excellence in beef. Nestled in the heart of Central California, our family is dedicated to producing Wagyu beef of unrivaled quality. Beef that is tender, flavorful, and unforgettable. Every cut reflects the meticulous care given to fuse the best of traditional ranching wisdom and modern innovation. To us, this isn’t just ranching, it’s crafting a legacy of extraordinary beef. From pasture to plate, we are committed to integrity, sustainable ranching with respect to the land, and producing Wagyu beef that brings families together.

We envision a future where ranching sets the gold standard for quality—where the land thrives, animals live with dignity, and families enjoy beef that is consistently exceptional. Willis D Ranch is dedicated to proving that you can raise Wagyu beef of the highest caliber, while sustaining the land and strengthening community bonds. We dream of generations who proudly serve our beef at their tables, knowing it was raised with integrity, care, and an uncompromising pursuit of perfection.

Family First, Always

Excellence begins with family. From our ranch family to the families we feed, every decision reflects care for them and generations to come. When we ask ourselves, “Would we be proud to serve this beef at our own Sunday table?”, the answer must always be yes.

Stewards, Not Just Owners

This land is the foundation for quality beef. We safeguard it with respect, working with nature’s rhythms, protecting water and soil, and leaving it richer than we found it. Thriving land produces thriving cattle, and thriving cattle produce extraordinary beef.

Honest Hands, Honest Beef

No shortcuts. No compromises. Every Wagyu steer is raised with patience, precision, and pride. Our beef is rich, marbled, and mouthwateringly tender because it’s the product of ranchers who honor their word and their craft.

Community Roots

The Willis D Ranch is woven into the fabric of the Central California Coast, and we believe quality should extend beyond just the plate. Supporting neighbors, sharing knowledge, and contributing to local life isn’t optional—it’s essential. A strong community raised us, and our beef is our way of giving back
