Plum Thicket Farms

Nearest Town, Gordon, Nebraska
3,400 acres

Located in the Sandhills region of Nebraska, Plum Thicket Farms is a family-owned cattle ranch operated by Rex and Nancy and their son Patrick and his lady, Jessica. "We have a passion for raising excellent beef cattle and strive to continue to improve the range and soil, which are our livelihood." This goal led Plum Thicket Farms to receive the 2016 Aldo Leopold Award for Conservation as well as being named the 2016 Commercial Beef Breeder of the year by the Beef Improvement Federation.

Rex and Nancy bought Plum Thicket Farms in 1998, after moving from the Colorado mountains where Nancy had practiced cow/calf veterinary medicine. The farm has since remained in the family as their son, Patrick, is currently running all farm operations. Rex and Nancy built the herd to 300 cows by implementing from the outset a detailed individual cow record system. Nancy utilizes this data to make bull selections and culling decisions. She has steadily improved the genetic quality of their herd over the years.

We offer 3-day and 5-day hunting packages that allow tents and small campers in designated areas along with a calving shed (running water) that sportsmen can clean game in. Deer and antelope packages are for up to 4 sportsmen, and upland bird packages are for up to 8 sportsmen. Prices are a flat rate for the group (not per sportsman).

    Beautiful property and such kind people. Nancy, Rex, Patrick and Jess were warm, welcoming and helpful hosts. There’s a good variety of terrain and opportunity on the farm. Highly recommended.

    My grandson shot his whitetail buck (his first deer ever) the first day of the hunting season. We had a good time talking with Rex as he showed us the property the day before the season. Nancy and Rex Peterson are the nicest people you'd ever want to meet.

    This is a great property. Property owners have taken care of habitat and even in a drought year like this one there were birds. Owners provided careful instructions of where to go and we enjoyed a day of hunting on this property. I would recommend for upland and deer.
