About 2J Ranch

2J is a family ranch nestled in the heart of the Interlake cattle country. Wildlife is plentiful on the ranch which is home to white tail deer, coyote, black bear, a wide variety of specie of birds and more. Owned and operated by brothers Jesse and Joel Dyck. The brothers grew up on the Lonesum D Ranch near Grunthal Manitoba before purchasing the ranch at the current location in the Interlake area.

Jennette grew up on her family’s ranch Triple C Charolais near Steep Rock MB and Joy grew up near Elfrida AZ where her family owned and operated Salzman Farm and Ranch.

2J is comprised of two parts; a commercial cow calf beef operation and a ranch/performance horse program specializing in raising, training and selling all around horses that get used on the ranch.

Jess oversees the horse program from the breeding to the training and sales.

Jess and Joel work together with the cattle and Joel handles the haying and equipment maintenance side of the operation.

We are continually striving to raise good minded athletes with our horse breeding program. We use quarter horse cow bred and race bred lines. We ride all our mares and stallions before putting them into the breeding program so we can have more certainty of what we raise.

The commercial cow/calf operation

We use quality, performance bulls from Triple C Charolais on our commercial cows to achieve growthy buckskin and silver calves.

Branding season is a time when family and friends come together.

Horses are used for all aspects of ranch work from moving cows, to sorting, to branding and pasture doctoring.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.”

Psalm 23:1-4
