Listen "A Seat at the Table"
Episode Synopsis
Join us as Kimberly Ratcliff, Caney Creek Ranch, TX, and Dugan Bad Warrior, Zuya Sica Ranch, SD, share their leadership journey. They have both built regenerative enterprises, finding practical solutions to overcome the challenges presented by location, finances and culture.
In 2008, Kimberly founded the 100 Ranchers Inc., a community-Based Organization (CBO) with the goal of serving agricultural producers who are dedicated to work together to increase their bottom line and improve their livelihood by producing safe, clean, efficient, and marketable products.
Dugan began Zuya Sica Ranch in 2007 with 22 cows, and today runs over 350 commercial cows with the goal of switching to grass-fed cattle.
After their presentations, the online audience will be invited to participate in a discussion addressing issues, challenges, and opportunities presented by the speakers including:
1) Access to resources such as land and financing
2) Suggestions and efforts to affect change in financing
3) Challenges and solutions to limited market access (geographic, cultural, product readiness, buyer bias issues)
4) Leadership, engagement, mentoring, and the power of collaboration
5) The role of the Grassfed Exchange now and in the future
