The South Dakota Grassland Coalition (SDGC) sees the many challenges that Ag producers are currently facing. That’s why they are excited to announce a solutions-focused event in Ft. Pierre, South Dakota: Tuesday, February 15 through Thursday, February 17. They extend a personal invitation for you to join Joshua and Tara Dukart of Seek First Ranch in western North Dakota along with other area Ag producers and professionals who are interested in creating a more profitable agriculture business and a more desirable lifestyle through Regenerative and Holistic Management practices. All family or team members ages 14 and up are encouraged to attend.
The Dukarts teach and speak throughout the US and internationally. The Soil & Water Conservation Society selected Joshua as their Harold & Kay Scholl Excellence in Conservation Award recipient in 2017. Cattle Business Weekly presented Joshua with a Top 10 National Industry Leaders award in 2015, and Joshua was recognized as one of North Dakota’s Top 40 Professionals Under the Age of 40 in 2012. As educators and practitioners, Joshua and Tara aspire to not just conserve, but regenerate landscapes and ranching businesses. They believe wealth can be strategically generated in a variety of ways: biologically, financially, and socially.
Typically, the 3-day session costs $400 per participant. However, a National Resource Conservation Service partnership allows the SDGC to offer the 3-day course to members for just $150 to include tuition, materials, lunches, and refreshments. [If you are not currently a SDGC member, your investment of $185 will also include a one-year membership to the SDGC.] Because they see tremendous value in all members of your operation participating, the cost for each additional family or business member is reduced to $50.
Location: Drifters Grill in Ft. Pierre, South Dakota
Date & Time: Tuesday, February 15–Thursday, February 17 from 9:30AM – 5:00 PM.
