THE OPERATING BASE
~8,500
ACRES, 30 PARCELS, PHASE 1 TARGET

A working base in beef, and the coordination layer being built around it.

Home ground in Benson and a weekly finished-cattle program give us a working base of supply today. Phase 1 is the current buildout: assembling the land base parcel by parcel, building the owned herd around a 500-cow breeding nucleus, and putting the processing, logistics, and traceability relationships in place to coordinate regional beef supply beyond any single farm.

FOUNDATION

270 years of working ground is why we started with beef, not the whole of what we're building.

This ground has been worked for 270 years; that history is where operating credibility starts. It's a real production base, not a brand story, run season to season.

Home ground, a weekly finished-cattle program, and a family that knows every fence line in the Champlain Valley: the base of supply the platform is coordinated around.

THE COORDINATION LAYER

A common operating standard runs through the entire chain, beginning with beef.

THE SIX FUNCTIONS

Six functions. One coordination layer.

Kingston Place connects supply, finishing, processing, logistics, traceability, and buyer fulfillment as one operating system, rather than leaving each to separate parties. We begin with beef; the coordination model extends across regional animal-protein categories.

01

Cattle & Supply Aggregation

A weekly finished-cattle program running today through processing partners, with producer supply qualified against standards we set ourselves. An owned herd is part of the Phase 1 build.

OPERATING NOW
02

Land, Infrastructure & Finishing

Owned and leased acreage across the Champlain Valley supporting calving, hay, backgrounding, and finishing, with infrastructure buildout continuing.

OPERATING NOW
03

Processing Coordination

USDA-inspected processing capacity committed under a signed capacity letter with a qualified third-party plant.

QUALIFIED THIRD PARTY
04

Logistics & Cold Chain

Refrigerated freight and delivery scheduling coordinated through qualified regional carriers, sequenced against harvest dates rather than booked ad hoc.

QUALIFIED THIRD PARTY
05

Provenance & Traceability

Animal-level tracking from land to harvest, in build: the record intended to turn commodity volume into institutional-grade, documented supply.

UNDER ACTIVATION
06

Multi-Channel Buyer Fulfillment

Restaurant, institutional, and direct channels planned to be matched to the right buyer at harvest as processing and traceability come online.

REGIONAL FOOTPRINT

ONE DAY'S DRIVE FROM
THE NORTHEAST'S TABLE

The Champlain Valley sits within practical delivery reach of Montréal, Boston, and New York, positioning Kingston Place near major regional markets while keeping production rooted in the Northeast.

LAND STEWARDSHIP

Conservation isn't separate from the operation. It's how the operation lasts.

Wetland corridors, riparian buffers, rotational grazing: we manage these as working parts of the ranch, not as offsets against it.

Land that's still producing in another 270 years is land we're managing correctly today.

WORK WITH US

BUILD THE
NETWORK.

From calving to capital markets, the platform takes shape through operating relationships built to hold together.

FIVE PARTNER GROUPS / ONE COORDINATION POINT

Each conversation starts from a different part of the regional system, then connects to the same operating layer.

CAPITAL PARTNERS

Regional agricultural infrastructure, built to coordinate, not a single-product farm business.

Entity structure is in place, with monthly close, KPI reporting, and investor reporting being implemented in the current buildout. Diligence materials are available under NDA to qualified investors, lenders, and strategic partners.
