Welcome to the DRIFTWOOD RANCH
on ORCAS ISLAND in WASHINGTON STATE
est. 1960 by Charles Arnt
One of the longest running continuous agricultural operations in the San Juan Islands in Washington's Puget Sound. The ranch was formerly owned and operated as a dairy farm by the McNallie Family. Two of the barns are original but the rest of the facilities, pens and fences were designed and built by the Arnt family in the middle of the 20th Century and continue to be upgraded today.
Driftwood Ranch was established running Charolais Cattle with imported bulls from France, including the 1968 World Champion “Boxeur.” The ranch is run in a traditional manner including harvesting local island hay for winter feeding.
