JT Stoddard Ranch

JT Stoddard Ranch was built on equal parts hard work, big dreams, and a little bit of chaos.​ 

 

Trent is a 25+ year Gunnison local who grew up surrounded by the mountains, ranching culture, and the kind of practical grit that rural life requires. Jen is a New Jersey girl who moved to Colorado in 2013 and never looked back. Together, we built a life that blends both of our worlds. ​

 

After years of dreaming about more space for our animals and a place where our family could build something meaningful, we found 40 acres just outside town and decided to take the leap. We built our home from the ground up and created a ranch where our kids can grow up surrounded by animals, open space, and the kind of responsibility that comes from caring for something bigger than yourself.​ 

 

Today, JT Stoddard Ranch is home to a growing herd of Boer goats, horses, mules, donkeys, chickens, barn cats, and a few dogs that are usually in the middle of everything. On any given day, you’ll find us feeding animals before sunrise, gathering fresh eggs, working with the equine, playing with the goats, fixing fences, and tackling an endless list of ranch projects.​ 

 

We’re passionate about building a quality herd of Boer goat, creating a welcoming place for equine and their people, and sharing ranch-raised products with our local community. Whether you're here to purchase livestock, board your horse, book arena time, or grab fresh eggs from our roadside stand—we’re glad you found us.​ JT Stoddard Ranch is still growing and evolving, and honestly—we’re building it as we go. But that’s part of the adventure.​ 

 

Thanks for following along as we build this life one animal, one project, and one adventure at a time.
