Brassfield, who grew up on an alfalfa farm in the San Joaquin Valley, founded GNLD, a vitamin and nutrition supplement company.[1] In 1973, he acquired 1,600 acres in the High Valley region of Lake County, California, which he expanded through successive acquisition, totaling about 2,500 acres.

An estate in the neo-Tuscan style was built on the Serenity Ranch on the floor of High Valley.
