Join the Soil Sisters in Stonewall, Texas, for this conversation with Michael Klein, a sixth-generation Gillespie County Texan and owner/steward of Windy Bar Ranch. The discussion covers the ranch's transition to Black Angus cattle, regen ag in ranching, strategies for success, and the journey from wholesale to direct-to-consumer beef sales. Michael shares insights into his farming practices, genetic testing for cattle, rotational grazing, and how he avoids commercial fertilizers on his land and big pharma drugs on his cattle. The conversation also touches on local beef processing and the significance of voting with your dollars by supporting local farmers and ranchers. Listen here and dig in with the Soil Sisters!
