Stemple Creek Ranch's history in Marin County began over a century ago when Angelo Poncia immigrated to the remote outpost of Fallon from his native Italy. The dairy he originally established on this land survived for three successive generations. Today, Stemple Creek Ranch is proudly run by Angelo’s great-grandson Loren, and his wife Lisa, who has reinvented the family business with a vision for raising superior quality grass-fed and finished meats. Their daughters Avery and Julianna, along with their cousins, will be the fifth generation to steward the land. Their goal is to work in harmony with Mother Nature to promote optimal biodiversity that ensures the long-term health and productivity of the ranch. They use regenerative, organic agricultural practices, which means they seek to enhance and rehabilitate their entire ecosystem by focusing on soil health and increasing carbon in the land. Most of their pastureland is Certified Organic, and their free-range beef and lamb are 100% grass fed and grass finished. Their animals never see a feed lot. Ever. Stemple Creek Ranch is 100% protected through the Marin Agricultural Land Trust (MALT) to ensure it will remain a productive part of the Marin County agricultural landscape forever.
