Passion, hard work, and big dreams, that’s what Jack and Melissa have at Meadow Creek Ranch and Thornton Agriculture. That’s what it takes in today’s world to make it work!

Jack started farming before he could drive, growing up in a farming community and only having ten acres soon proved that things were going to get real. Now 15 years later, they are farming hundreds of acres using cover crops, no-till, and intensive rotational grazing methods to provide the healthiest best crops and cattle possible while building healthy soil and sustaining nature at its best. They also sell forage crops and grain, pasture raised Texas Longhorn and Angus beef, they sell all types of cover crop seed, offer soil testing, lime, fertilizer and trucking.
