Join us for the final installment of the Water & Wildlife Management on Working Lands Field Day Series at Berlier Ranch!

We’ll hear from Rancher Jim Berlier about his grazing management and local wildlife, and from ranch partners about prescribed burning, windmills (construction, land restoration, impacts on birds, etc.), local wildlife (antelopes, birds), the Audubon Conservation Ranching Program, and more.

The field day and lunch are completely free. The event is targeted towards producers, agency reps, and anyone interested in managing a ranch for water and wildlife.

*We are still determining some of the speakers for this field day so check back as we update this webpage and agenda!*
