I want to thank Steve Robinson for the opportunity to purchase Bushy Park Farm, in its entirety. I have had the pleasure, as a customer, to work with Bushy Park Farm since the beginning of its creation. Steve has become a close friend and someone I admire greatly. I know we will continue to offer the high end quality that has become identified with the Bushy Park Farm brand.

We are excited to announce that Cory Thomsen will be joining the team here at Willow Springs Cattle Company. Cory will be relocating to Prairie Grove, Arkansas and working alongside Cody, Garrett and Trenton.

We can’t imagine a better addition to our team.

Again, we want to encourage you to visit the ranch or give us a call about helping you fulfill all your goals.
