Welcome to the Western Ranchlands Corporation

We are a conservation-minded agricultural investment and land management firm based in southwest Alberta, Canada. We use a combination of science-based strategies, proven management systems and professional expertise to efficiently manage land on a large scale.

Western Ranchlands offers a new perspective and a new approach to synergistically combine the operation of livestock businesses, the conservation of open space, and real estate investment. We invite you to join us in this important venture.

 

  • Our Mission is to acquire and manage ranches using sound ecological and economical principles that simultaneously create attractive financial returns and enhance land health.
  • Our Vision is to profoundly influence the future of rural land by perpetuating superior stewardship and building a legacy of land based wealth.
  • Our Objective is to retain long-term management continuity, not to "flip" properties.
