About Stemple Creek Ranch

Beef and Lamb Family Ranch | San Francisco Bay Area

The Poncia family has lived and run a family ranch on the same ranch site for over 100 years in Tomales, a scenic drive north of San Francisco. Angelo Poncia, our family's first immigrant to the United States from Italy, settled here in 1902. Today, Angelo’s grandson and great-grandson still operate our family’s cattle ranch raising all natural, grass-fed beef and lamb. We are proud of our family ranching history and of the ranch land north of San Francisco that we have stewarded for the past 100+ years. The land is an extension of our family, with Stemple Creek winding through the rolling hills and emptying into the Pacific Ocean just a few miles west of our home.

We treat our animals with the utmost care, using humane animal welfare practices. For more information about our organic, free range ranch and conservation efforts, read about our Ranch Practices.
