ABOUT
ABOUT
We’re Lance & Katey Johnson, owners of Zero Cattle Ranch. We are located in Southeast Oklahoma , about two hours above Dallas.
In the 1960s, Lance's grandparents, Fran and Bill Greathouse , purchased what is now Zero Cattle Ranch. They built a home on the property and lived out the rest of their days ranching and taking care of the land. With a combination of several thick woods, improved pasture, and rolling hills, the ranch not only provides a home for cattle, but countless other wildlife as well. Native species on the ranch include turkeys, whitetail deer, rabbits, mourning dove, geese, and more.
Bill began experimenting with different cross breeding and genetics and came to develop the "Zero" breed for which the ranch gets its name. The breed is a white angus hybrid and when asked why he named them "Zeros," he said, "Because they have zero problems."
We have since had the honor to take over and grow the ranch.
We currently maintain a small pure bred herd of our "Zeros" as well as registered Red & Black Angus, and commercial cattle.
Taking care of the ranch together is our biggest passion and joy. Whether we are watching an Oklahoma sunset, sorting cows in the pens, tagging new babies, or just riding around, we feel so blessed to be able to preserve this ranching heritage.
Most Americans are at least three generations removed from agriculture now. Our goal is to educate consumers about where their beef comes from, share our lifestyle, and ensure people know it is ethically, morally, and responsibly raised- besides being the healthiest and most delicious protein source of all. We love our land and our animals and work hard to take care of them and make sure it is preserved for generations to come.
