~ Our Story ~
We've been riding cattle trails for a few generations - long enough to build an enduring respect for our land and the food it produces.
My name is Kirstin Kotelko and I am a proud member of the fourth generation of the Kotelko family. Today, my dad Bern and my Uncle Mike run our ranch (Highland Feeders) and partner in Growing Power, Canada's first integrated BioRefinery that produces Green Power and BioFertilizer.
I direct my passion to Spring Creek which we started in 2003 as a means of adding value to the cattle we've been breeding and raising for many years. Through Spring Creek, we are able to offer a line of premium pure beef products that are naturally raised to create an exceptional eating experience.
Like you, we have a keen interest in knowing the food we eat is made with care for quality, safety, traceability and the environment. That's why we've developed rigorous protocols for Spring Creek Ranch Premium Beef including:
- Superior genetics (Spring Creek Cattle are a custom Angus/mixed breed)
- Pure and natural barley and forage feed
- No hormones, additives, antibiotics, or steroids - ever
- Compassionate animal care
- Accountability and traceability right back to our ranch for every single beef we market
We work with a team of personally selected ranchers to exclusively raise Spring Creek Beef. Our ranchers register each animal with the Canadian Cattlemen Identification Association and commit to a voluntary Canadian Food Inspection Agency audit process that monitors every step of their animal care.
Our beef is processed and packaged in federally inspected, HACCP approved facilities for uncompromised food safety and product integrity. Our personal guarantee of premium quality and safety is stamped on every package.
Quite simply, we love what we do. We hope you love the results.
