Your Ranch. Your Magazine!
Our Magazine
Working Ranch Magazine has been a reader favorite and a trusted source for all things Ranching since its inception in 2006. There’s no other magazine on the market today that reflects such an intimate understanding of the life of an American rancher. We steer clear of politics, and instead focus on the business and management practices of ranching, showcasing the people who make it all happen.
Our six bi-monthly issues are written, edited, and photographed by cattle producers for cattle producers, giving it an authenticity that is unbiased and unrivaled. From the educational and informative articles on cattle management to the western lifestyle family features, ranchers old and new will glean something from the pages of Working Ranch.

“Because of the size of my operation, I get all the cattle magazines. But Working Ranch is the only one I read cover to cover.”
“Ranchers have been waiting a long time to get a magazine like this.”
“Everyone in my household reads your magazine. And when we’re finished reading it, the ranch hands ask to read it.”
Our Staff
Drew Lawler
Drew is the founder and CEO of Working Ranch Magazine. He wasn't born into the cattle ranching community but as he likes to say, "I came just as quick as I could." Drew typically jumps into new initiatives that we roll out and then from time to time, picks up a screwdriver and tinkers a bit here and there. For the most part, Drew oversees our circulation. "We have a great team -- I think the best in the industry -- so my job is to keep out of their way!" Drew and his wife Linda own a ranch in Idaho's Sawtooth Valley, just south of Stanley.
