ABOUT THE TEXAS WAGYU ASSOCIATION
Since the formation of the Texas Wagyu Association (TWA) in 2009, we have seen the interest in the Wagyu breed continually grow and are now boasting memberships worldwide. The TWA works hard to educate and facilitate the uniqueness of the breed and make it known this is the best beef money can buy! As we continue to promote the breed and grow the association with integrity, we always represent the members well by soliciting & sharing their ideas and being readily available to them.
Please familiarize yourself with our breed, association, and website. We have a number of valuable resources available such as our “Classifieds” page, membership directory, and relevant information on the breed. We encourage you to join us in the TWA, as this rewarding journey continues to build comradery and lasting relationships.
Be a part of our shared vision – we have the distinct opportunity to help define how we grow awareness and develop this highly exclusive Wagyu industry. We want you to be a part of something great!

Our Story – A Local Family Farm
In 1946, Grandpa Milburn moved his family from western Kansas to a ranch south of Arriba, Colorado. He brought his Angus herd with him. Those Angus cattle were descendants of the original four Angus bulls imported from Scotland to Kansas in 1873.
He liked his Angus cattle. They were heavier going into the fall and wintered better than other crossbred cattle on the ranch. However, he didn’t think they were good mothers. According to Grandpa, “They don’t milk, and will putcha on the fence just for lookin’ at’em”.
Improving his Angus mother cows became his mission in life. This was before serious record keeping and EPDs, but he was cowman enough to recognize maternal traits and how they are passed on from mothers to daughters. By keeping his good cows and culling the rest, he eventually arrived at his “Super Momma” herd. Milburn Angus replacement heifers were highly sought after. We still have one of those last Angus cows in our recip herd.
Though we have transitioned from Angus to Wagyu cattle, this is the same direction we are taking our Wagyu herd.
