Paicines Ranch is expected to host a Rancher to Rancher Field Day about managing for drought resilience on April 11.

Local ranchers and livestock managers can participate in a hands-on demonstration of water cycle function and the results achieved through high stock density. Participants will be invited to share what they have experienced and learned about the “soil sponge” and livestock management.

The event is sponsored by Rancher-to-Rancher network. Kids are welcome.

The event is free and will be held at the Paicines Ranch at 13388 Airline Highway, Paicines, CA 95043

Coffee and lunch will be provided, but the ranch asks that attendees RSVP in advance so they can plan. Go here to RSVP online. For more information, call (831) 628-0288 extension 25 or email megan@paicinesranch.com.
