| The Ranch Plum River Ranch sits along the banks of the Plum River in the rolling hills of northwest Illinois near the small town of Pearl City. The name Ranch is simply just that, a name, as the actual ranch consists of only 15 acres on the home farm of our grandfather Harold Katzenberger. By renting neighboring land the home ranch runs approximately 100 head of cows. Plum River Ranch actually started in 1978 when brothers Eric and Aaron began to show as juniors and built a small herd of Herefords kept over from their show career. This small herd grew to about 10 head until they were dispersed when the boys left to attend college. In 1996, Nick (father) , Eric and Aaron began to purchase cows to rebuild the herd which currently consists of approximately 100 head. In 2007 we purchased the Yeagle Hereford Farm from our good friend Dean Yeagle of Dakota, IL. Dean has an excellent set of mature cows decending from Anhinga Vic, JR Network, Keynote and 29F, that we will work into our breeding program. We will continue to graze cattle at his farm and utilize his knowledge and experience in animal nutrition. |
