About Us
Steve & Melanie Lund Family
Lund's B Bar Angus Ranch, started in 1957, is a third generation in the registered seed-stock Angus business. Located in eastern Montana 30 minutes south of Interstate 94 running through Wibaux, you may get to our ranch by traveling south on Hwy 7 to the Carlyle Road turning east for three to five miles. Visitors are always welcome.
Lund Mom & four chlidren
Since the beginning when our herd was started, the selection has been for deep chested, easy keeping cattle. The majority of our cows are a 6 frame package. Good udders and good feet are essential because we require our cattle to travel for their spring, summer, and fall grass. On the occasional open winter we require the same, but typically due to horizontal flying snow and flat rolling hills, we feed grass hay. Culling cattle is the best part of our job. Poor feet, poor udder, production, disposition, confirmation, mentality, is whatever will send that cow to town - hence our motto to always "Seek the Balance."

Our annual precipitation is around 13 inches of moisture. We have a small grains operation to complement the ranching operation. We try to grow almost all our own feed for our bulls and replacement heifers, and put up all our own hay.

This operation is family run with family members only. Mother Ethel, Rob & Kara, Steve & Melanie and children Bob, Cooper, and Hope all pitch in to help with the day to day operation of the ranch. We have an annual production sale that we sell around 90 bulls each year on the 4th Saturday in March in Baker, Montana, at the Bull Palace located on the north side of town on Hwy 7.

Selling 90 Bulls
Thank you to all who came to our 2023 bull sale.

We are so very grateful for this way of life. We continue to pray that God will guide, protect, and direct us all in our relationships, our lives, and livestock decisions.
A verse that's impacting us right now:
"Lord Jesus, direct me throughout my journey so I can experience your plans for my life. Reveal the life-paths that are pleasing to You. Escort me along the way; take me by the hand and teach me. For You are the God of my increasing salvation, I have wrapped my heart into Yours."
Psalm 25:4-5 (TPT)
