Our Caviar Farm – California Caviar Company

 cQ Ranch

Sustainability, Traceability, and Transparency

What sets us apart in the caviar industry is that our farm is completely sustainable in its nature and operation. Our infinity loop model, takes our natural water sources from our aquifers on property to supply our tanks and ponds. After it filters through our farm, our nutrient rich water goes to our neighbors to irrigate their fields for their cattle, later seeping back into the ground to replenish our mineral rich aquifers. “It is a perfect loop - what we take out we put back.” Our model has been touted by US Fish and wildlife department and used as an example for sustainable and optimal farming practices.

With the proliferation of caviar farms throughout the world, Deborah has traveled the globe selecting and making caviar with the highest caliber caviar farms throughout North America, Asia, Europe and the Middle East. Aware that farming conditions are critical to the ultimate quality of caviar, she is meticulous about the condition of water, feed and the overall environment in which the fish are raised. She is well known for climbing in the tanks to personally taste each and every egg before harvest. Her relentless energy and insistence on quality has made her one of the most respected and well-known leaders in the caviar industry.

Our seasoned and dedicated team of experts work 24/7 insuring the health and wellness of our farm and its many inhabitants. Our sturgeon team spawn and raise our pure indigenous breed of white sturgeon solely at CQ Ranch until harvest.
