I have spent many, many weeks visiting Da-Le Ranch and each visit adds another wonderful memory. Watching the hard work and dedication Dave and Leslie put into breeding, cleaning, feeding and watering all the critters (dogs, pigs, chickens, turkeys, llama and rabbits) opens my eyes to what it means to be a rancher. Dave is often up before the sun and comes up, in only to eat a quick bite then back out to tend to the animals and work the farm till well after dark. He is always looking for a better, eco friendly, way of taking care of everything. Leslie puts all of herself into the jobs necessary to raise all the critters. When she has a new litter of puppies you can bet she gives each one more love and attention than any other breeder. Her passion for excellence in breeding Lhasa Apso's far surpasses any breeder I've ever seen. If you want a quality Lhasa, the ONLY place to go is Da-Le Ranch. I have a 7 yr old from her first litter and he is the most loving baby. She doesn't just breed them, she LOVES them, each and every one!!!! As if the farm wasn't enough to keep them busy, they take care of other people around them as well, and not for profit!!!! When I visit we always have fresh pork and it is so much better than what's in the stores that I don't eat pork anymore except from Da-Le Ranch. I even bring some home to Asheville, NC with me each time. I love these guys and am so excited that I get to come back to visit in May. God bless Dave, Leslie and Nana in all that He has for them!

WOW WOW WOW! Sincere, informative, and obviously passionate about what he is doing. Gotta love that. Dave you are awesome. You answered every question that I had, ones that I didn't even think of as well! Considering the information we got on our visit, the worms were a hell of a deal! What a great experience to meet you and see the farm, I can't wait to get my son out there for a tour. You are one of a kind. Thank you for taking the time to help us w/ our worm farm, and getting us the invaluable information that you did about the worms, our bins, our dog situation, everything! Just can't say enough, thank you thank you thank you! My son and I both sincerely enjoyed our visit! :-)

So...you have eaten pork right? Wrong..!If you have only eaten pork from the grocery store..you have not been eating pork, but a poor representation of it. We are so happy with the pig we purchased this spring. The tenderness, lack of fat and taste are incredible. I didn't think I would ever eat pork again because I was so disappointed with the grocery version, boy am I glad I found this.

Today we visited the Da-Le Ranch in Lake Elsinore and had a wonderful visit with owner Dave. What a nice man, he is generous and helpful. Unfortunately we did not get a chance to meet Leslie, hopefully next time we visit. We received a lot of info on how to raise worms - vermiculture. We also got lots of info from Dave on how to make a compost pile the correct way. Thanks Dave for all your info. And for no extra cost we got to watch Dave and his helpers cut the meat from a slaughtered pig. The pigs are raised on the farm as well. It was quite the experience. Thanks again Dave and we wish lots of luck with your farm. I give them an A+. Visit or call them for an appt. It is great up there.

The people here are class A-1 and have helped me get my garden spot started for the growing of my peppers for my delicious salsas.  I hope to do more business in the future with Dave and the family. Take the drive and check the place out.  You will be impressed!!

I met Dave & leslie thru Craigslist to buy some worms, and I went to the ranch to pick them up. Dave & Leslie were two of the most wonderful people I have ever met. And the ranch will always probably always be changing to promote a Eco friendly world. If this was an Ebay feedback, I would rate them 100% awesome!! THANKS again for the worms and info, the tour and Dave even pulled my car out when I got it stuck in soft dirt,.... great guy. God bless you and your family............

I tried to email you, but it appears from all of the other comments that your email is still not working. Please contact me for information on how to add your information to the state website for worm growers. The CIWMB would like to promote programs that reduce waste, like vermicomposting. http://www.ciwmb.ca.gov/Organics/Worms/WrmSuply.htm
