About our guest: Sumiko and Harrison Mills - H Bar S Ranch, Colorado
Harrison and Sumiko Mills' journey with H Bar S Ranch began with two kids, two pigs, and two dogs. That quickly grew into raising three boys and selling their ranch raised pigs direct to consumer. They quickly realized there was a desperate need for processors in their area and their business model needed to change in order to be successful. Harrison and Sumiko started processing their own animals, along with friends and families, and in 2018 they said, "Well, why can't we just do it ourselves?" With their own two hands, they restored their 80-year-old barn and turned it into a state licensed meat processing facility serving central and eastern Colorado.
You can connect with Sumiko and Harrison on Instagram and their website.
