South Dakota State University Extension’s new “pasture chat” event provided a unique experience for women involved in agriculture in the White River region.
Women on the Range is a program that is open to all. Through hands-on workshops and peer learning, this program empowers landowners, ranchers, and natural resource managers to build confidence and leadership in grazing and land stewardship.
