We welcome our father, Butch Nuding, to delve into the rich history of our fifth-generation family ranch in West Texas. Butch shares personal anecdotes and insights into the evolution of ranch operations. We discuss inheritance taxes, the importance of trust structures, succession planning, and his hope for the ranch's future. This episode is a heartfelt conversation about family, heritage, and the journey toward regenerative ranching.

We crack open the official beverage of the Soil Sisters podcast with Aaron Owens, a longtime goat and cattle rancher, innovator in the Texas hemp industry and the creator of Tejas Tonic. We discuss Aaron’s West Texas roots and the challenges and opportunities in the Texas hemp market. The conversation covers the importance of genetics in agriculture, the complexities of the hemp and cannabis markets, and the legislative landscape affecting hemp farmers and businesses in Texas.
