Meet Ryan

Ryan is an avid outdoorsman. As a foreman carpenter-turned-duck farmer, Ryan brings his skills from his former professional life to the farm, building the infrastructure critical to Lazy Duck Pastures operations. He also brought his love for ducks. He has spent his whole life watching ducks in the wild, a pastime that now has practical applications to the business. Ryan knows what a happy duck looks like. 

Ryan's Story

Ryan grew up in Orangevale, California.  He became an avid duck hunter as a teenager, enjoying countless fall and winter days observing waterfowl and planning his next hunt.  Honing his culinary skills by grilling duck steaks, he has brought the delicious flavors of duck to the tables of friends and family.  His professional animal husbandry skills began when he took a job in gundog training in Oroville, CA; he trained retrievers and managed a large kennel, maintaining feed regimens and hygiene for the animals.  He still has a Labrador named Libby--Gunstocks Give Me Liberty.  Later, his professional life was spent as a carpenter, and he stepped away from a Superintendent position to fulfill his dreams of raising his family on a farm. Ducks have always been his favorite.
