Shane and Lindsay along with their four children, Aubrey, Emery, Luke, and Hattey reside where Maddock Ranch is headquartered. They started ranching there in the fall of 2014 when an opportunity to lease cows and acreage was presented to them. Along with ranching and working at the Maddock Ranch Supply store, Shane also works for the USPS as a contract mail carrier. Lindsay spent 12 years working for NDSU extension and is now the Owner/Manager of the Maddock Ranch Supply store in Harvey, ND.
Shane and Lindsay will both tell you that building a ranch has had its growing pains. There have been many lessons learned and with each experience, there has been growth. Shane and Lindsay’s primary duties on the ranch are the day-to-day operations. Their focus is on making sure there are always good fences, fresh water, green grass, and quality feed. Shane is a mentor in the ND grazing lands coalition, where he provides guidance on pasture management and water development to other ranchers across the state.
