Bullhead Ranch - Other
3742 West 7550 South, Benjamin, UT 84660. Phone: 801-794-1336. Email us at:
sales@bullheadranch.com. We
follow organic methods, but are not yet certified. Payment: Cash, only. We
raise chicken, lamb and chevon in as natural a setting as we can make. Our
animals are all on pasture and are not locked in a feed lot atmosphere. They
are rotated through four different pastures to give them access to fresh
grass at all times and to interrupt the worm cycle. Our chickens are out to
roam the pastures (and in the Fall after harvest, they get our garden as
well) where they scratch bugs and eat the fresh grass. You will find our
eggs have a beautiful almost orange yolk and great flavor. Our meat chickens
are more dense than a store-bought version so it weighs more for its size.
Our lamb is from a heritage breed, the Navajo-Churro sheep. These produce a
lightly flavored meat that is superior. Our chevon is from several different
breeds of goats. While we like a bit of Nubian or Boer in the father to
produce a good sized animal, we have found that a milk doe makes a
tremendous amount of food for the kids to grow on. All of our animals are
pre-sold prior to slaughter dates, so please email or call to be on the list
if you are interested in any of our animal sales.
I've only heard of this ONE in
Utah.

Home Canning Kits
This is the same type of standard canner that my grandmother
used to make everything from applesauce to jams and jellies to tomato and
spaghetti sauce!. This complete kit includes everything you need and
lasts for years: the canner, jar rack, jar grabber tongs,
lid lifting wand, a plastic funnel,
labels, bubble freer, and the bible of canning, the Ball Blue Book. It's
much cheaper than buying the items separately. You'll never need anything else except jars & lids! To see more canners, of different styles, makes and prices, click here!For more information
