About Us.
The horse and cow culture of the American West continues to hold hearts, minds and livelihoods. And for many of us, it is due to an indescribable passion that infiltrates our daily lives enabling us to be a part of one of this country’s only root based cultures. A culture based on personal self-reliance, of commitment to the land, and of competency in doing work controlled by nature’s clock of seasons. Ranching and agriculture are ways of life never perfected, but lifelong apprenticeships of acquired skills.
It is for those who believe in the West - what it is and what it can be, worked with stewardship and an appreciation based on selfless values; it is for those we present Ranch & Reata Magazine.
Ranch & Reatatreats the West as a place of passion and possibility and considers these editorial topics on a regular basis:
Ranching and the Cattle Business –In the 21st century, efficiency, safety and good stewardship are all on the minds of today’s ranchers.
The Western Horse –Explore the renaissance of the ranch horse – in ranch use, competitions and the revival of the bridle horse culture along the Pacific Slope region of the far west and the impact it is having on reining, cutting and other performance horse genres. The great horses and the people who breed, train and ride them – now the world over.
Geography and Travel –The West is alive with incredible destinations and travel opportunities. Travel with us and see the West at its best?
People and Personalities –The West is filled with significant people and characters that continue to help mold it. Hear their stories.
Art and Western Craft –No other part of the country has been depicted so lovingly and continuously as the West. In painting, drawing, sculpture, word, song and film; the West is a fertile ground for creative representation and celebration. The crafts of the region, be they bit and spur making, saddle making, silversmithing, rawhide braiding – among others, remain as classic examples of function over form – usefulness celebrated with beauty.
Culture & Events –There is no shortage of things to do in the West. From Western Museums to horse sales to great gatherings and brandings. Western hospitality is world-renowned.
Ranch & Reata brings a unique perspective to celebrating and encouraging the West – with respect, expertise and accessibility. Each quarterly issue of Ranch & Reata will elegantly take you to the source with timely and informative editorial as well as in-depth looks at the culture of the West – told by those involved – the ranchers, horsemen & women who make the West such a special place to live in and protect.
