Every year, Badger Creek Ranch opens their gate to the public for an educational community field day. As part of this year’s Open Gate event, Badger Creek Ranch Community is excited to collaborate with Quivira Coalition, Grasslands LLC, and the Natural Resources Conservation Services (NRCS), to bring our programming to the heart of the Rockies.
Badger Creek is renowned for their success with prescribed grazing in Colorado’s Arkansas River Valley, and at this workshop, you will hear from local ranchers Chrissy McFarren (Director of Badger Creek) and Jim Howell (CEO Grasslands LLC and Co-founder of Savory Institute), as well as Dixie Crowe (NRCS rangeland management specialist) about what is possible when it comes to managing your herd in riparian, high-elevation, and/or arid climates.
Whether you’re a rancher or completely unfamiliar with the ranching industry, this event is a fantastic opportunity to further your knowledge of regenerative ranching and its potential to improve our ecosystems and watersheds.
After spending the morning learning about grazing livestock in challenging environments, guests will enjoy a lunch featuring Badger Creek Beef, a tour of the Badger Creek property, live music, and more family fun during the other Open Gate events!
A free lunch is provided for attendees.
