The ranch was originally homestead in 1877 by Norwegian immigrants looking for a better life. Today the Voldseth family, which are the fourth and fifth generations living on this land, own and work the ranch. It won’t take you long to see that they chose this area not only for its good water and grasses to graze cattle and sheep, but also for its beautiful scenery. The Voldseth Ranch lies partly in the legendary Crazy Mountains and partly in the beautiful Castle Mountains.

Today the Voldeseth Ranch (or Voldseth Land and Livestock, as it is officially known) actually consists of three ranches: the original TG Ranch, the Loweth Ranch, and the Bonanza ranch.

David and June Voldseth and uncle Norman Voldseth, who is now 94, are the present owners of the Voldseth Ranch. Uncle Norman still enjoys living on the ranch and is in good health. Even though in a wheelchair from a tractor accident, David shows true grit working every day. June loves calving, fall gathering, and of course riding with the guests in the summer.

In 1993, June thought it would be good fun to add a guest ranch. With the help of David and their children, Sonia, Vance and Laura, it became an adventure they have thoroughly enjoyed.

Vance is now the manager and part owner of Voldseth Land and Livestock. He is married to Kim, and they live on the TG ranch. They are parents to three sons – Gavin, Tristan, and Brooks. What fun those three boys are, and we love having them so close.

Sonia has stayed true to her agricultural background and is now living in New Zealand with her husband Grant and working as an attorney for Federated Farmers. They have two beautiful daughters, Skylar Lily and Ruby Jasmine.

Laura is also married to a New Zealander, living the good life with her husband Chris. They own one of the most beautiful farms anywhere in the world. They raise 5000 sheep, and Laura also teaches part time and is a wonderful mother to two adorable sons, Oliver and Elliot, and a beautiful new baby girl, Eva June.

We are blessed with a wonderful family.
