Tucked up against Wyoming's Wind River Mountains in a spectacular land of red sandstone cliffs and lush spring-fed valleys is Twin Creek Ranch & Lodge, LLC. Here the Malmberg family lives a life reflecting their passions: caring for the land, growing healthy food, and providing a place where people find renewal and rejuvenation.
Once a traditional rancher, Tony Malmberg began to view his ranch differently after attending a Holistic Management seminar offered by The Savory Center in 1987. Putting what he learned into practice, Tony has improved his land—using livestock to increase wildlife populations on the ranch and has won numerous stewardship awards.

The most obvious addition to this 16,500-acre ranch is Twin Creek Lodge, built four years ago from hand-hewn logs selectively harvested with horses from the upper reaches of Twin Creek. One of the reasons for building the lodge rested on Andrea's desire to share Twin Creek with the local community and to build a food culture close to home. Her meals feature locally grown foods prepared with a commitment to health and well-being. Now, after spending a day in nature's great wild open, guests dine on the Malmbergs' free-range beef, poultry, pork, goat cheese, vegetables, and other local foods.
Grass-finished double-aged beef production, however, still holds center stage at Twin Creek. All of Twin Creek's sales, apart from those to a local smoke house and grill, are direct to the consumer—"co-creators" as Andrea likes to call her supporters. Since many of their customers also visit the ranch, the Malmbergs have an opportunity to explain their land management practices and to demonstrate the land's remarkable recovery. Andrea says, "We have become increasingly respectful of the earth and the wild and domestic animals that make this place their home. Moreover, we have become more aware of whom we serve—our customers. Without these co-creators all would be for naught."
The Malmbergs believe that aligning people's passion with the landscape can create layered and synergistic uses. "Our dream," says Andrea, "is for Twin Creek to be seen as a place of ecological integrity. Connected to this healthy core, we see profitable enterprises, led by vivacious entrepreneurs who share the benefits of costly infrastructure." Goat grazing, cheese-making, hunting, fishing, poultry raising and many other potential enterprises can enhance each other as they improve land health and bolster a community's economy.
