At 2 Coots Ranch, we’re proud of the heart and soul that goes into every project we create. One of our core passions is woodworking, and Phil, our talented craftsman, has been honing his skills since he was a young boy.

Starting at just 8 years old, Phil embarked on his first woodworking project—a coffee table built with a jigsaw and hammer. Since then, wood has been a constant in his life, with countless hours spent creating intricate and beautiful pieces. Whether it’s a custom desk, a sturdy bookcase, or a finely crafted cutting board, Phil’s dedication to detail shines through in every project.

Some of his specialties include:

  • Furniture – Handcrafted tables and desks, built to last.
  • Bookcases – Elegant, functional, and made to hold your stories.
  • Inlay Cutting Boards – Intricate designs that are as beautiful as they are useful.
  • Customized Plaques – Personalized gifts with meaning, perfect for any occasion.

What makes Phil’s work truly special is the heart behind it. As part of his personal commitment, Phil creates and gifts custom plaques to veterans, each one engraved with the phrase, “My oath of service doesn’t have an expiration date.”This personal message reflects his deep respect and gratitude for those who have served in the military.

If you’d like to own a custom creation, we’re always open to commissions!

Thank you for supporting us and our mission to craft not just beautiful wood, but a legacy of service and craftsmanship.

Stay tuned for more updates, and we look forward to seeing you at the ranch!

I’ll admit it — we’re nuts. Who in their right mind starts farming in their 60s? Apparently, two coots with more grit than sense. My wife and I got married at 17. We were city kids with stars in our eyes and dirt in our dreams. We talked about farms and land and animals for years, but life had a habit of getting in the way. Kids, jobs, bills. You name it. Every time we got close, something knocked us back.

Grass-Fed or Grain-Fed? Why We Raise Both

You ever notice how everyone’s got an opinion about beef? Some folks will swear up and down that grass-fed is the only way to go. Others won’t touch anything but a good, marbled grain-finished steak. Me? I like it grain-fed — but I raise both. And here’s why.
