​Wholesome Grassfed Beef, Lamb, Pork, Chicken, and Eggs -- Directly from the Land
to Farmers' Markets in Tucson, Phoenix and Southern Arizona

Double Check Ranch Grassfed Beef Tucson and Phoenix Farmer's markets
We are a family in the business of raising, processing, and directly selling hearty, wholesome pasture-raised meats without artificial hormones, antibiotics or other industrial methods.  We raise meat in ways that would be familiar to our grandfathers and are, in short, reinventing local, small-scale agriculture in a way that respects land, animals, and people.

Come see us for grassfed beef at Farmers' Markets in Tucson, Phoenix, and southern Arizona:



Phoenix and surrounding area:
Gilbert Farmers' Market 
(Gilbert and Page). Saturday 7 am - 11 am  
Phoenix Uptown Farmers' Market (Central and Bethany Home). Saturday 8 am - 1 pm 
Phoenix Public Farmers' Market (Central and McKinley). Saturday 8 am - 1 pm

Tucson and surrounding area:
Santa Cruz River Farmers' Market (Congress and Avenida del Convento). Thursday 4 - 7 pm 
Oro Valley Farmers' Market at Steam Pump Ranch (10901 N Oracle Rd) Saturday 8 am - 12 pm 
Rillito Park Farmers Market (River and First) Sunday 8 am - 12 pm


We believe that responsible, small-scale agriculture is a critical, and currently largely missing key to a responsible economy. Our mission is the production of humane and sustainable grassfed beef for the Tucson and Phoenix Farmers' Markets. We know that managing land well can restore the biodiversity that our landscapes are losing at a frightening rate. We have a biological plan to manage our land holistically, all our decisions are goal driven to ensure that they are socially, economically and environmentally sound. We are dedicated to improving our watersheds, our animals' lives, and the connection between urban consumers and rural producers. 

We share our ranch with a variety of wildlife: mule deer, javelina, quail, rabbits and rattlesnakes, to name just a few. Coyotes, bobcats, and the occasional mountain lion are an important part of the balance. We feel that this balance is far more important than any economic loss we may incur losing a calf or two to a predator. Therefore, unless an animal is rabid or deviant, we do not control them.
