We want to share our beautiful ranch with you. And after years of working, development, and growth, we can finally provide you one-of-a-kind experiences & memory-making moments on horseback and Ranch participation tours! We know from experience that there is nothing more exciting and wholesome than a day at the ranch, especially when you’re actually able to participate as little, or as much, as you like! Just know that, at the end of the day, you may have had more fun working your way to a much-needed shower (which we have on site) than you’ve had in years!

Raul and Genel found this land in February of 2012, and immediately fell in love. Raul said that if God would grant them the land, he would truly consider it a gift. The word Callidora means "gift of beauty” in Greek. The name today serves as a reminder to everyone that this land and all of the ranch facilities—a labor of love—were first given as a beautiful gift of God. Over the years, through research and development Callidora has transitioned from a vision, to a working, sustainable livestock ranch to a truly exciting, yet peaceful getaway! And what began as an overflow of joy to share with friends and family, is now something special that all the world can come and experience.
We’ve been blessed to raise Angus cattle on our ranch for over 10 years now. And like God intended, they live naturally. Our cattle happily roam our expansive Georgia range from calving until harvest. We prefer to let nature run its course when it comes to delivering superior Georgia beef. We are committed to following humane handling practices for our herd every step of the way, from calving to processing.
By allowing our cattle to mature on nature’s schedule, we’re able to give you the perfect amount of marbling in each cut of beef with the unmistakable flavor that grain-finishing delivers.
We offer our pasture raised beef in eighth, quarter, half, and whole bulk beef sizes for pick-up in Georgia and boxed cut beef collections that can also be shipped from the ranch right to your door!
Meet the Callidora Family!
