Where the storms we walk through become the stories we grow from.
Life moves through this land on hooves, wings, four legs, and familiar paths.
Some animals are here to carry the future forward.
Others are here because this is home.All of them shape the living rhythm of Evermore Ranch.
We breed with intention. Animals are chosen not only for conformation and lineage, but for temperament, resilience, and the way they move through the land.Our Gloucestershire Old Spots are raised slow and close to the earth, growing into their roles as mothers, teachers, and steady companions in the field. Each carries a distinct personality — shaped by soil, season, and daily handling.
This is our foundation sounder:
a beginning built on quiet leadership, balanced energy, and animals who know the land well enough to work with it.

Leela
Quiet in her leadership and steady in her care, Leela anchors the sounder with calm presence and patience.

Domino
Curious at heart and soft in her presence, Domino moves through the pasture with quiet attentiveness and thoughtful calm.
Mallory

50% Red Wattle
Mickey
Calm by nature, with steady manners and an easy confidence that settles the space around him.
Fry

As part of maintaining a healthy breeding sounder, we periodically raise out piglets intended for freezer use. These pigs are born here, handled gently, and raised on pasture with access to rooting space that supports both animal wellbeing and soil health.Our market pigs are a thoughtfully balanced cross, with 25% Red Wattle influence added for hardiness, foraging ability, and depth of flavor. This blend supports slow growth and pigs that work the land without becoming destructive.Availability follows the natural rhythm of gestation and season, and is offered to those who want to raise their own food with patience, intention, and care.
We keep dairy goats with intention. Animals are chosen not only for milk and breed character, but for temperament and presence.For more than fifteen years, our Mini LaManchas and Nigerian Dwarfs have shaped the rhythm of this land — turning briars and brush into sweetness, raising their young under oak shade, and reminding us what it means to work alongside animals rather than above them.This is a seasoned herd, built over years of careful selection, quiet leadership, playful balance, and the steady wisdom of animals who know the land and its seasons well.
Nigerian Dwarfs bring a thoughtful balance of richness and resilience to the herd. Their milk is dense and sweet, well-suited to small-scale dairy use, while their size allows them to move lightly across the land without overwhelming it. Curious and expressive by nature, they tend to engage closely with both herd and handler, making them attentive mothers and steady contributors to daily life here.

As part of maintaining a healthy dairy herd, we raise goats with attention to balance rather than volume. Milk here is gathered seasonally and used first within our own household, with surplus shared thoughtfully as the rhythm of the herd allows. Breeding decisions are guided by temperament, maternal strength, and long-term sustainability rather than output alone.Availability follows the natural cycles of kidding and lactation, and offerings—whether milk, young stock, or companions—are limited and seasonal. Our focus remains on animals that thrive within the land and the herd, and on relationships built through patience, care, and respect for the work these goats quietly do.
These animals are not part of a breeding program.
They are not here to perform, produce, or become something else.Some arrived quietly and stayed.
Some earned their place through instinct, vigilance, and time.
Others never fit a category — and never needed to.They live in the margins of the farm:
between barns and fence lines,
in the pauses, the watchful hours, the long memory of place.They move between shadow and sun,
keeping watch where we cannot,
grounding the land simply by being present.Each one belongs here —
by choice, by temperament, by the work of simply remaining.
These cats are not adoptable.
They are not temporary, and they are not passing through.They chose the barns, the rafters, the fence lines —
and stayed.Their work is quiet and constant,
their presence woven into the daily rhythm of the farm.
They belong here by instinct, memory, and time.

Waldo
The Elder
He turned twelve in 2025. He is steady, seasoned, and deeply rooted in the rhythm of the farm — a quiet constant who has seen more seasons than most. His presence is subtle but grounding, the kind that only comes with time.

Barni
The Muscle
Barni is the young muscle of the farm — agile, alert, and always where the work is happening. He moves with confidence and purpose, quick to respond and quicker to adapt, earning his place through action rather than noise.

Moose
Spokescat, mouser, permanent
Moose is the spokescat of Evermore Ranch, though he has never needed words to prove his worth. A phenomenal mouser and constant presence, Moose has earned permanent sponsorship through instinct, consistency, and an uncanny sense of exactly where he is needed.
Not bred for purpose, and never asked to be anything other than themselves. Booboo, Frankenfurter, and Emuli exist outside tidy definitions — fixtures of the farm by presence alone. They move through days at their own pace, adding rhythm, curiosity, and quiet humor to the land. Not livestock, not pets, not working toward anything. Simply part of the place, woven into the pauses, the margins, and the moments that make Evermore feel lived in.

BooBoo
Born here. Stayed forever.
Booboo was born on Evermore Ranch to a rescued mama and never left.
She is small in stature and enormous in presence — steady, curious, and entirely convinced the farm belongs to her.The fastest way to get her attention in the pasture is to call “kitty, kitty, kitty” — a reminder that despite her size and confidence, she is completely and unapologetically spoiled.
Emu-li
Tall, watchful, unimpressed
She sees everything.She stands apart from the daily rhythm of the farm, observant and alert, always aware of what’s happening — and often judging it silently.
She is not interested in fitting in, and she has no intention of explaining herself.Emu-li adds perspective. And occasionally, chaos.

Frank-N-Furter
Flash, drama, and impeccable timing.
He arrives exactly when you least expect him — announcing himself loudly and without apology.He is beauty and noise, confidence and spectacle, reminding us that not everything on a farm has to be practical to be valuable.
Sometimes presence alone is enough.
Our guardian dogs live and work full-time with the land, the herd, and the people who tend them. Their presence is steady and deliberate — protection offered without noise, authority held without force.Most of our guardians are Komondor and Great Pyrenees blends of varied lineage, chosen not for uniformity but for instinct, discernment, and the ability to think independently while remaining deeply bonded to their work.They are not pets, and they are not on display. They are partners shaped by seasons, routine, and trust — reading the dark as easily as the daylight, holding quiet boundaries through long nights, and carrying a kind of wisdom that only comes from time spent watching while others sleep.

Leesi
Raised with a closer circle, she is often the one seen — the bridge between the dogs, the herd, and the people who come through this land. She reads energy before movement, settles where trust feels right, and does her work without needing distance to do it. Gentle with those who belong, unwavering when something feels off, Leesi reminds us that discernment and connection are not opposites — they are partners.
On rare occasions, we raise a small litter of guardian puppies. These litters are planned only when there is an established waiting list of working farms seeking a dog raised with livestock from the start.Puppies are placed intentionally, with an emphasis on instinct, environment, and long-term fit. We do not produce puppies for availability, trend, or demand.
Evermore Ranch has a long history of caring for cats in need. In our earlier years, we operated as a rescue — taking in kittens, providing rehabilitation when needed, and thoughtfully placing cats into environments where they could thrive.Those years shaped how this project exists today.While we no longer function as an open-intake rescue, the Farm Cat Project grew directly from that hands-on experience. It reflects what we’ve learned about temperament, proper placement, long-term care, and the responsibility that comes with helping animals well — not just quickly. Knowing when to say yes matters. Knowing when to say no protects the animals and the integrity of the work.What the Farm Cat Project Is TodayThe Farm Cat Project is centered on intentional placement rather than intake volume. Each cat is considered individually, with care taken to match temperament, environment, and long-term well-being.Most cats in the program are strong mousers, comfortable living outdoors, and independent while still enjoying human connection on their own terms. They are best suited for farms, barns, workshops, and rural properties where they can move freely and feel at ease in their role.Some cats may also enjoy limited indoor time, depending on both the home and the cat’s individual preferences. Our goal is always to place cats where they feel secure, useful, and respected for who they are.Occasionally, a kitten comes through whose temperament or needs make them better suited for indoor life rather than outdoor or working placement. When that happens, the kitten is placed directly into a carefully matched indoor pet home rather than remaining within the Farm Cat Project’s working-cat placement pool. These situations are the exception — not the focus — and are handled thoughtfully, one at a time, with the kitten’s long-term well-being guiding every decision.
The Farm Cat Project is intentionally small and carefully managed. We currently have three cats available through the program, each placed with long-term success and safety in mind.All three are approximately two years old, spayed, fully vaccinated, and up to date on flea prevention. They are confident mousers who thrive in outdoor or barn-based environments, where they can do the work they enjoy and move comfortably within a working farm setting. Some may also appreciate limited indoor time, depending on the home and the individual cat’s comfort level. As always, placement is guided by temperament and what will best support each cat over time.Because the farm is protected by guardian dogs, the project operates within firm but thoughtful limits. For safety reasons, we only take in kittens. Adult cats are extremely difficult for our dogs to accept, and introducing them would place both the cats and our working dogs at risk.Kittens are able to acclimate gradually to the rhythms, boundaries, and protections of the farm in a way adult cats cannot. Growing up within this environment allows them to develop confidence and familiarity rather than being asked to adapt under stress.To maintain this balance, we are unable to accept additional kittens until one or more current cats are adopted. These limits protect the animals already here while ensuring new cats have the best possible chance at long-term success.Clear limits are how we ensure every animal here is protected, respected, and cared for well.
Before placement, we take time to ensure each cat is matched to an environment that fits their temperament and long-term needs. Adoption through the Farm Cat Project is donation-based rather than fee-based, allowing adopters to contribute in a way that supports ongoing care while honoring the realities of farm life.Donations help offset veterinary care, preventative treatments, and daily needs for the cats currently in the program. Placement decisions are guided by fit and safety first, with adoption never treated as a transaction.

Butterbean
Confident and independent. Best suited for a barn or outdoor-based home

Blueberry
TextQuiet, observant, and reliable. Prefers space and routine, thrives in working environments

Kati
TextAlert and curious, with solid hunting instincts. Adapts well once settled
Not everyone is in a position to adopt, and sponsorship offers a meaningful way to support the Farm Cat Project while honoring the limits that keep the program healthy and sustainable.Monthly sponsorships help cover the ongoing costs of care for the cats currently in the program, including feed, flea prevention, annual vaccinations, and routine veterinary care. This support allows us to provide consistent, preventative care without expanding intake beyond what the farm can responsibly manage.Sponsorship is designed to sustain the work — not to increase volume. It does not reserve or assign a specific cat, guarantee intake of additional kittens, or override capacity, safety, or placement standards. These boundaries exist to protect the animals already here and to ensure the care we provide remains thoughtful and ethical.If you’re interested in sponsoring, please reach out for current options and details. Sponsorship opportunities may evolve over time as the needs of the program change.The Farm Cat Project exists because experience taught us that good intentions are only the beginning. Thoughtful structure, clear limits, and respect for the animals are what allow this work to last.
Care at the ranch is not reactive. It is planned, consistent, and shaped by systems that protect animal wellbeing over time.Every decision — from breeding schedules to intake limits — is made with long-term health, safety, and sustainability in mind. This approach allows animals to receive steady, thoughtful care without urgency, overextension, or unnecessary intervention.
When animals are born here, their care is never improvised.Established neonatal care protocols are in place before kidding and farrowing seasons begin. These include structured monitoring, bottle-feeding systems when required, and safe milk storage practices that allow for calm, effective response when additional support is needed.Preparation — not urgency — is the foundation of early-life care on the ranch.

Protecting animal health requires more than good intentions — it requires limits.Clear biosecurity practices are maintained to reduce risk, prevent cross-contamination, and support stable herd health. Outside animals are not introduced casually, and intake decisions are always weighed against the safety of animals already here.Rescue situations, when they occur, are handled thoughtfully and within strict limits. This is not an open-intake facility. Sustainable care depends on knowing when to say no.Boundaries are not a lack of compassion — they are how care remains ethical and effective.
Life on the ranch follows natural rhythms.Breeding, birthing, growth, and rest all happen within seasonal cycles that honor both the animals’ needs and the land’s capacity. Not every season is a production season, and not every animal holds the same role year to year.By working with these rhythms rather than against them, the ranch supports healthier animals, steadier outcomes, and a more sustainable system overall.Care here is not rushed — it is lived.
Evermore Ranch is a working farm rooted in responsibility, respect for animals, and the understanding that care is more than love — it is consistency, preparation, and knowing where limits are necessary.Our approach has been shaped by nearly three decades of hands-on rescue, rehabilitation, and animal care work in one form or another. Those years taught us that good care is not reactive or trend-driven. It is planned, informed by experience, and grounded in respect for both the animals and the land they live on.We raise livestock, steward working animals, and operate small, intentional programs built around genetics, animal psychology, and long-term wellbeing. Decisions here are guided by what supports healthy animals over time — not urgency, volume, or outside pressure.Brandi brings formal training in canine temperament testing alongside years of practical experience working with animals across species. That foundation informs how animals are evaluated, placed, and managed, with careful attention paid to behavior, environment, and individual needs. Understanding temperament — not just species — is central to how this ranch operates.This is not a rescue in the traditional sense, nor is it a production-driven operation. Evermore Ranch exists in the space between — where ethics, practicality, and stewardship meet. Every program here is intentionally limited, shaped by experience, and designed to remain sustainable for the animals, the land, and the people caring for them.Care here is shaped by experience, education, and the humility to keep learning.
This work is carried by people who live it every day. Care here is hands-on, experience-driven, and grounded in long-term responsibility to both the animals and the land they steward.
