PURGATOIRE WATERSHED FARM & RANCH PROGRAM

Need to finish thinking through as to what all to include here……

– History of Farming and Ranching in Purgatoire Watershed (include links to history of ranching podcast tour in watershed)

– Understanding Current Realities and Challenges of Farming and Ranching in Purgatoire

– Experiential and Educational Opportunities:

o Farmer for a Day Tour – Experiential tour for kids and/or adults

o Rancher for a Day Tour – Experiential tour for kids and/or adults (Shelly said she could give this tour I think, or help set up)

o Wooten Ranch – Agritourism

– ALSO…need to expand Farm and Ranch program so getting on the ground work done, not just awareness stuff! See draft strategic plan that Board reviewed – bring in relevant pieces here

AGRICULTURE – (Agricultural? Farm & Ranch?) Sustainability & Rangeland Health

  • Watershed with a Rich Agricultural History – Preservation & Education
  • Purgatoire Watershed Farm & Ranch Program
  • Other?

Need to finish brainstorming this but basically just short intro, then key in on rich ag history to podcasts etc – well decide what want to include here versus under Farm & Ranch program page….
