Today is National Ag Day where we get to celebrate the land, its bounty, and those who steward it. And on top of that, it’s also Women’s History Month. How befitting is it that National Ag Day converges with this month-long celebration of women’s achievement, especially given the multitude of hats, leadership roles, and essential responsibilities women have held for generations in family farming and ranching operations?
In this episode of Tuned in to the Land, Michael sits down with Katie Isaacson Hames, of the conserved El Chorro Ranch, and Elizabeth Poett Campbell, of Rancho San Julian and star of Ranch to Table on the Magnolia Network. After growing up as neighbors on multi-generational family ranching operations along the Central Coast of California, Katie and Elizabeth each moved away before being called back "home". Now, these remarkable women are making their own lives and raising families on the same land in which they were raised. Tune in to learn more about their own unique journeys and how they've been able to innovate and diversify to keep their operations viable and thriving in the 21st century.
