Join us as we visit sustainable ranchers who are leading the charge toward a more regenerative future for America’s beef industry. At each stop in the 5-state tour, you’ll hear from ranchers and farmers just like you who are implementing regenerative practices while managing the challenges of farming today. During the tour, you’ll also benefit from technical resources from our partners who can help provide the tools needed for you to feel comfortable implementing change on your own ranch or farm.
