Agriculture is facing a succession emergency.
Average producer age: 58 years old
20% of agricultural scientists retire by 2030
83% of eligible producers can't access federal resources
Grasslands support 1+ billion people but remain the world's most forgotten ecosystem
How can we include younger generations in policy that affects them and is inclusive of their skills, while respecting the wisdom older generations have for us?
What We Do
Aligning people, place, and profit to transform private rangeland across the South and Intermountain West, where traditional wisdom meets modern science.
Ecological Revitalization
Ranches as living labs for grassland regeneration. Demonstrating how regenerative practices improve carbon sequestration, biodiversity, and water cycles while maintaining profitability.
Economic Experimentation
Blended capital solutions combining ranch revenue with carbon credits, conservation payments, and impact investments to create resilient rural and agricultural economies at scale.
Intergenerational Education
Two-way knowledge exchange: young people contribute innovative tech and sustainability skills while experienced ranchers share wisdom and tacit knowledge, strengthening agriculture through mutual learning.
Effective Storytelling
Data-driven narratives that secure funding, influence policy, connect consumers to landscape impact, and demonstrate how ranching innovations contribute to climate solutions.
