Stewardship

Owned by Tuda Libby Crews, Ute Creek Cattle Company is a family affair. Joined by her husband Jack, their children and grandchildren, the Crews family is dedicated to the preservation and enrichment of their family ranch.

Partnerships were forged with state, federal and private agencies including Ute Creek Soil & Water Conservation District, Natural Resource & Conservation Service, US Fish & Wildlife “Partners” program, NM Department of Game & Fish, National Wild Turkey Federation, New Mexico Water Trust Board, NM State University Extension Service and numerous others. The collaborative effort brought technical expertise into the matrix and provided grants and cost-sharing opportunities which made it possible to achieve restoration goals. Wildlife habitat development has returned myriad animal and bird species to the land.
