Owner & Operations Manager
Co-owner · Ranch partnerships since 1985
Marie keeps Vaughn Family Meat Co. running—from ranch relationships to the front counter—so the shop can stay a reliable neighbor on Ranch Road.
As co-owner and operations manager, she coordinates deliveries, inventories, and the schedules that keep beef, pork, and wild game moving from cooler to case. She built our Carson Valley rancher partnerships and still makes sure every side of beef that comes through the door can be traced back to pasture.
On the blog, Marie writes about sourcing, community, and what it means to run a family butcher shop through fire season, holiday rushes, and everything in between.
