Expanding Our Mission
“We can’t become what we need to be by remaining what we are.” - Oprah Winfrey
Our Vision: 100 Acres for 40,000 MealsCC Cattle Company started as a small idea with a big heart: raise cattle not just for profit, but to put fresh, locally raised beef on the plates of families who need it most. Today, we’re ready to take the next big step for southern Wisconsin—expanding our farm from 12 acres to a full 100 acres.
Why Expand?
-
The Need is Growing: The six largest Dane County food pantries have seen family visits double since 2021. Food insecurity is at record highs, especially for children.
-
From 7,000 to 40,000 Meals: Right now, we provide around 7,000 meals annually. With 100 acres, we’ll deliver up to 40,000 fresh, nutritious meals every year—directly to local food pantries serving children and families.
How We’ll Do It
-
Land Purchase, With Support: Your donations are being matched—every dollar goes further with a federal agricultural land conservancy program designed to help farms like ours grow.
-
Upgrades For Safety and Sustainability: Expansion funds will also improve our cattle handling and storage, making the whole operation safer for volunteers—so we can welcome more helping hands from our community.

Our Impact
Our Impact, In Their Words
“Beef is a high-need item for our pantry network, so any donated amount we can receive is a wonderful boon… The commitment to community that CC Cattle Company displays ensures…we’re equally excited to discuss where it came from. Second Harvest looks forward to our continued partnership.”
—Josephine Rabbach, Food Sourcing Coordinator, Second Harvest Foodbank of Southern Wisconsin
