As the last straw in a series of events that jeopardized our own food security, Lastraw Ranch (Est. 2012) was started with 12-laying hens and a neighbourhood egg route as a home-schooling project on the outskirts of Dawson City, 500kms north of Whitehorse, Yukon.
From its humble beginnings of teaching English, Math, Science, Biology, Business, Heritage, and American Sign Language (ASL), to learning ethical animal husbandry, humane harvesting practices, as well as team-work, work-ethics, and resiliency within our family – Lastraw Ranch has become one of the largest meat and egg producers in the Klondike region and the first farm in the Yukon with a transhumance (the practice of moving livestock to an off farm site seasonally) lease.
Lastraw is now partnering with other Yukon farms and value-added producers to become your source for locally-produced food.
