Kimberly Ratcliff is CEO of Ratcliff Premium Meats, a leading provider of pasture-raised beef and champion of sustainable ranching practices. After a corporate career where she witnessed the disconnect between financial markets and small family farms, Kimberly returned to her family's Texas ranch to bridge those gaps, advancing Caney Creek Ranch—established by her parents in 2002—while advocating for underserved farmers and rural communities. Through the Ratcliff Community Base Organization, her nonprofit, she empowers small farmers through financial education and land stewardship programs. Collaborating with HBCUs like Prairie View A&M, she's enabling small-acreage landowners to access carbon credit markets through cooperative structures and education, creating a replicable model for underserved communities nationwide. Kimberly speaks regularly on sustainable farming, women's leadership, and agriculture's future, inspiring audiences with her commitment to transforming rural communities.
