Chuck Trowbridge

Chuck Trowbridge is a first-generation regenerative rancher in the Texoma region of northeastern Texas. Trowbridge operates a direct-to-consumer brand, Prairie Farmstead, which sells beef, pork, chicken and goat meat as well as eggs.

Trowbridge grew up on a conventional dairy farm in western New York. As a kid, his parents transitioned the farm to beef cattle and hay production. As an adult, Trowbridge discovered that regenerative management philosophies aligned with the goals he had to start his own farm in Texas.

Operating a small, family farm means all hands on-deck most days. But when Trowbridge can, he makes time to volunteer at his church and with his children’s school PTA. He is also an active member of the American Pasture Poultry Producers Association and the Farm & Ranch Freedom Alliance.
