Ranch Raised Kids is a series of books written, photographed, and published by the award-winning team, Seth Joel and Charlie Holland.

Ranch Raised Kids are seen through Seth’s honest and unobstructed lens and they are heard in their own straightforward words.

Arizona Ranch Raised Kids and California Ranch Raised Kids are realistic and informative books. They capture the commitment, hard work and forward- thinking of young C21st ranchers.

This project truly bridges the gap between producers and consumers. Seth Joel and Charlie Holland work tirelessly to tell the real story of agriculturalists. And perhaps the best way to tell that story is through the eyes of children.

When we work it’s not like we get up and saynow it is time for work. We get and say

today we are moving cows. We enjoy doing it and when you enjoy doing it

you work harder at it.

To create California Ranch Raised Kids the California Cattlewomen have introduced Ranch Raised Kids to diverse ranching operations in the mountains, deserts and lush coastal areas of the state.

““Sometimes you go, seriously, is there anything else I would want to do with my life? And

I can’t think of anything! I just love this. This is what I want to do.

Carly Gaede, age 17

Carly rides alongside her siblings, Gretta, 15, Emma, 9 and Teddy Gaede, 6, as they push cattle to summer pasture through Kings Canyon National Park in the Sierra Nevadas.

People think we are cruel to our animals but we are really not. We try our hardest to take care of them and give them a good life.

Kyle Fowle, age 12

“ “Kyle still has a strong bond with his first show lamb,

Whitey, the bellwether for his growing herd on the Fowle Ranch in Scott Valley, Siskiyou County.
