HERRADINA
HOW WE STARTED
HERRADINA ORIGINALLY STARTED IN 2018 WITH THE SIMPLE IDEA BETWEEN RICH AND DINA TO BRING A HEALTHY, HORMONE-FREE AND NATURAL GOURMET BEEF OPTION TO MANY FAMILIES. RICH TOOK THE IDEA, LIKE ALL THINGS RICH DOES, AND TURNED A SIMPLE IDEA INTO WHAT WOULD BECOME OUR "CADILLAC STYLE WAY OF BEEF." RICH PURCHASED THE CATTLE AND BEGAN TO CREATE A SUPERB HERD, WORKING ALONGSIDE HIS SONS AUSTIN AND ALEX. WITH MANY YEARS OF FARMING AND DAIRYING EXPERIENCE UNDER HIS BELT, AS WELL AS GENERATIONS OF KNOWLEDGE BETWEEN BOTH RICH AND DINA ... HERRADINA BEGAN. WITH THANKFUL HEARTS, HARD WORK AND THE KNOWLEDGE FROM THEIR PARENTS, HAROLD AND PAM TILLEMA AND DAVID AND SHIRLEY VANDER SCHAAF, HAVE PASSED ON TO THEM THROUGHOUT THEIR ENTIRE LIVES EVERYTHING CAME NATURALLY... JUST LIKE OUR PRODUCT!
WHO WE ARE
HERRADINA IS A 100% FAMILY OWNED BUSINESS. HERRADINA'S NAME CAME FROM THE COMBINATION OF ALL OF OUR CHILDREN'S NAMES. TOGETHER AS A FAMILY, RICH AND DINA HAVE 8 AMAZING CHILDREN, EACH UNIQUE IN THEIR OWN WAY. HERRADINA ALSO MEANS "LORD OF THE VALLEY" AND IT IS BY THE GRACE OF GOD THAT OUR FAMILY HAS COME TOGETHER AS ONE. OUR DREAM IS TO INSTILL THE SAME VALUES AND QUALITIES OUR CHILDREN HAVE IN OUR PRODUCTS.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
OUR PHILOSOPHY AT HERRADINA IS SIMPLE, WE VALUE QUALITY OVER QUANTITY. WE WORK VERY HARD TO PROVIDE THE BEST AMERICAN WAGYU BEEF FOR MANY TO ENJOY. RICH AND DINA ARE STRONG BELIEVERS IN MAINTAINING HIGH STANDARDS IN EVERYTHING THEY DO: FROM RAISING EIGHT AMAZING CHILDREN TO RAISING A REMARKABLE AMERICAN WAGYU HERD!
