Ranching: A Lifestyle Beyond Occupation
Here at The Dancing Yak Ranch, we believe that practicing ranching as a lifestyle helps us reconnect with the nature, and witness first-hand, the true relationship between land and our food. By participating in the full cycle of life from being born to being consumed, one will start to truly appreciate and cherish the food on the table.
An Unique Take On Sustainability
We explored different dairy and meat animals on the ranch and settled on dairy sheep and yaks, which require less grass and water consumption to grow. We are also experimenting with free-grazing Berkshire pigs and chickens at our alpine (over 9500 ft.) ranch location to see how far we can push our self-sustainability limit.

Who We Are
Jason and Sophie read the “The little house on the prairie” book series growing up in Taiwan. After over 10 years of hard working in United States they obtained US citizenships and began living the dreams of what they read in those books.
Then they met Leon Lux, a mentor from central Colorado that changed their lives forever. Guided by his teachings; from building high tensile fences to training yaks, they were able to build their dream ranch. The thrilling sensation of reviving old-fashioned agriculture in this rapidly changing modern world is what kept them going and has allowed them to love what they do every single day on the ranch.
