Carey Ranches
Family ranching operation near Alturas, California, with irrigated meadows, cattle and organic alfalfa-hay production.
- Location
- Carey Ranches operates near Alturas in Modoc County, California, with Carolyn Carey named in ranch and conservation accounts.
- Sourcing
- Audubon’s March 2022 ranch interview names Carey as a Panorama producer. This is a dated programme relationship, rather than a current package’s assigned ranch.
- Certifications
- The CCOF directory reviewed in October 2026 lists certified crops and livestock, including pasture, rangeland, alfalfa and custom grazing. The listing does not identify every animal or certify a finished retail product.
- Practices
- A January 2024 account reports organic alfalfa-hay production and commercial cattle on the family’s Modoc County ranches. Growing hay does not establish the complete cattle ration.
- Practices
- The wet-meadow project account reports completed irrigation-weir and levee work. These works support irrigated grazing, hay and habitat management; the account does not supply measured water-quality or bird-population improvements.
