Our Farm, Our Family

Crown "S" Ranch is a small, independent farm owned and operated by the Sukovaty-Argraves family: Louis and Jennifer and our children Geza and Icel. We practice the traditional craft of animal husbandry to raise food in a way that is humane, sustainable, and healthy - better for the animals, better for the environment, and better for you.



Our Farm

Crown "S" Ranch is a pasture-based, beyond organic farm in Washington's Methow Valley.  We run a grass finishing operation raising cattle, pigs, and poultry using time-tested management-intensive pasture rotation, sometimes called grass farming.  We layer the animals over certified organic pasture, coordinating their coverage of it so that each animal's use benefits the others.   Our grass farming and animal husbandry maintains healthy conditions for our animals and land and produces tasty beef, pork, poultry, and eggs.

Our Family

The 50 acres that make up Crown "S" Ranch have been in the care of the Sukovaty family since 1968, when Val and George Sukovaty purchased it as a working family ranch.  They raised five children here and now we -- Val and George's son Louis Sukovaty and his wife Jennifer Argraves -- are raising our two children here.
