Ranch Family Blog

Welcome to our new blog!  This blog will give you insight into life on a working cattle ranch.  Written by the Harms family from rural Lincolnville, Kansas.

Mark and Kim Harms own and operate the Harms Plainview Ranch along with their children Taylor, Cade and Payton. Together, they raise Angus, Red Angus and Charolais cattle.  Their ranch is located on Kim's family's 120-year-old homestead and Taylor, Cade and Payton represent the fifth generation to work on the land.


It's Grilling Season!

Summer is just around the corner and there is no better time to get the "fun in the sun" party dates on the calendar. Whether it's birthdays, backyard barbecues or impromptu picnics, beef will be the showcase ingredient this summer! So, dust off your grill, visit the meat case and offer your family and friends delectable and healthy beef recipes that are sure to please.

Did You Know?

You can stretch your budget by grilling once and dining twice.  Start with the amount of steak you need for one meal. Enjoy the first batch of steaks hot off the grill - and refrigerate the remaining servings to slice for next day salads and sandwiches. Try these recipes for starters!
