Our Story

Owned and operated by the Kieckhefer family whose early ancestors began ranching in Prescott, AZ in 1873, K4 Copper State Reserve operates on the same values of honesty and integrity as they did nearly 150 years ago. 

World-class Arizona beef is no accident, it's the product of good science, innovation, and commitment. Superior Angus genetics with Genomic DNA testing provide the foundation of our breeding program, resulting in the highest marbling possible. 

Years of dedication to developing and maintaining quality beef and responsible ranching make K4 Copper State Reserve the premier Arizona Beef.

Rick Kieckhefer & his daughter, Kodi, are the 6th & 7th generation ranchers.
