Fox Creek Ranch is located in northern Canada, nestled between the Fox Creek and the mighty Peace River, just 11 miles northwest of Eaglesham, Alberta.
We run a grain and cattle farm, specializing in Aubrac cattle. The Aubrac breed originated in southern France where there is a tough terrain and climate, with extreme temperature differences and uncertain quality and quantity of pasture and hay. These cattle have been selected for their foraging ability.
Aubrac are deep gutted, moderate framed and rugged cattle ... ideally suited to the demands of today's pasture-based beef system.
We run 250 head of Aubrac cross cattle, and are now importing embryos from France to increase our genetic base. We also have a full blood Aubrac in the research program at the University of Florida.
The Aubrac's calm nature, ease of calving, disease resistance and foraging abilities work well for us, as Nancy must often manage the herd alone while Dave is away working in the oil industry.
