Beyond the Track
|
Legendary quality is what Richard Childress brings to everything he does, both on
and off the track.
Whether nurturing grapes to produce the premium wines of Childress Vineyards, supporting
the wildlife conservation efforts of the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, or breeding some
of the finest Angus stock in the country, Richard insists on the best at every turn.
You only have to take a look at what's going on beyond the track to see why the Childress
name is synonymous with "Legendary Quality".

Yadkin River Angus
The Yadkin River Angus farm, in Clemmons, N.C., has produced some of the
top cattle in the Southeast and progeny from Yadkin River have gone on
to be cornerstone females in many major herds across the country. The
herd was dispersed in 2003 to make some needed improvements to the land
and facilities, including reseeding the pastures and new fencing. Those
improvements are just about finished and the Yadkin River program will
again be up and racing soon. When traveling through North Carolina,
plan a visit to Yadkin River Angus.
