Get to know the faces behind Heritage Meat Co.
Ben and Rachel Blasher
Welcome to Heritage Meat Company, where the legacy of quality and tradition runs deep. We are Ben and Rachel Blasher, the proud fourth-generation cattle ranchers from Reliance, SD. Our family's journey in cattle ranching has been a labor of love, passed down through generations, and we are excited to share our story with you.
Our Heritage and Passion
Growing up in the heart of South Dakota, Rachel was immersed in the world of ranching from a young age. Her parents, grandparents and great-grandparents instilled in her not only the skills necessary for successful cattle ranching but also a profound respect for the land and animals they care for. This deep-rooted passion fuels our commitment to providing high-quality meat products to our customers.
Growing up in Michigan, Ben was also immersed in the rhythms of farm and ranch life, gaining hands-on experience that would shape his future. Ben honed his skills by helping in the feedlot, a crucial aspect of livestock management. This early exposure provided him with a strong foundation in the practical aspects of agriculture.
Our Commitment to Quality
At Heritage Meat Company, we believe that the key to exceptional meat lies in the care and dedication put into every step of the process. From pasture to plate, we ensure that our cattle are raised sustainably and ethically. Our ranching practices prioritize the well-being of our animals and the health of the land, resulting in meat that is not only delicious but also responsibly sourced.
Connecting With Our Community
We are more than just ranchers; we are community members who understand the importance of building strong, lasting relationships. We take pride in connecting with our customers, sharing our knowledge, and learning from their experiences. We are here to answer your questions and ensure you have the best experience possible.
Looking to the Future
As we continue to grow Heritage Meat Company, we remain committed to our roots while embracing innovation. We are excited about the future and the possibilities it holds for expanding our offerings and reaching more people who appreciate quality, sustainably-raised meat.
Thank you for being part of our journey. We invite you to explore our products and learn more about our dedication to excellence in ranching. Welcome to the Heritage Meat Company Family

Family isn’t just an aspect of our business - it’s the heart and soul of everything we do.
The youngest member of the Heritage Meat Company is Miss Adalynn. She’s bringing in the fifth generation of cattle ranching with an infectious smile and a love for the land and animals that surround her.
Happiness radiates from Adalynn all the time, but none more so than when she’s working alongside her parents and grandparents. Whether she’s helping with daily chores, checking on the animals or riding in the combine, her joy is evident. It’s in these moments that the true spirit of what we are working to achieve at Heritage Meat Company shines through.
We are excited to watch Adalynn lead the next generation of cattle ranchers into the future, and our hope is that she’ll do this while preserving the values and traditions of our rich heritage.
