Meet your local rancher:

My name is Leigh Anne, I'm 24 years old, and I own and operate Go West Ranch.  Okay, in reality, I'm a young kid with big dreams and little money.  Meet my backers, mom and pop.  They let me run my ranch on their farm, in exchange for me running their farm for them.  I've always had an interest in crops and cattle, and I received my first hands-on introduction to the farming industry as a 13 year old kid changing siphon tubes and damming ditches on a neighbor's 200 acre corn/hay/barley operation in Colorado.

Eleven years later, with a lot of advice, encouragement and help from local southeastern Washington farmers and ranchers, plenty of live and learn experience, and the best customers any business could ask for, Go West Ranch looks forward to serving you locally produced, "our farm-to-your family" beef and hay.  And heck, if you're an artsy kind of person, we'll even sell you some of that too!

Special thanks to Burl for posing so sweetly in this picture, and to Ky, for being her typical goofy-expressioned blob of blur that she usually is.

By the way, this would be a good place to mention my big brother, Ben, of Walla Walla Web Solutions, who designed, built, and maintains this website... From myself and all of Ben's happy current and future customers, a big thank you goes out to our Colorado neighbor, Irv, for all the not-so-wonderful farming experiences Ben had while working for him, including work beginning at 5:00 am (not a good time for a night-owl), and that hilarious little incident when Ben was driving the tractor with a pipe trailer hooked on the back and nearly took a bridge's entire concrete guard railing out of existence.  (Yep, I do believe you made the right career choice, bro!)
