The Ranch is the main base of operations for Beatrix LeBeau, which was previously under the ownership of legendary slime rancher and notorious old codger Hobson Twillgers, but he left it into disrepair before disappearing.
The player is free to do tasks and organise The Ranch's plots however they like. They can corral Slimes (or keep them free range if they so choose), grow Food in a garden, upgrade the Vacpack, sell farmed plorts and use the Range Exchange to trade with NPCs. Futhermore, aspects of the ranch can be modified using the 7Zee Rewards Club upgrade path.
