Overview/Summary: This is a 3-day commitment with 2-hour sessions M/W/F. This offers a deep dive into the land, wildlife, and agricultural practices of the San Lucas Ranch. This would start with the first class being an introduction and a general overview of the San Lucas Ranch, its operations and geography. Then 3 follow up classes focus on wildlife, geography of the ranch, livestock operations and farming/range management. We would integrate trips specific to the day’s curriculum to drive home the point of the lesson. Friday concludes with a branding demonstration & thank you lunch.
