Workshop Overview

August 21–23, 2026 | Redwing Ranch, Gardner, CO

Join us at Redwing Ranch in Gardner, Colorado, for Grazing Management, a hands-on, boots-on-the-ground grazing management workshop designed for women+ working with livestock or land. This immersive experience will equip you with the tools and confidence to evaluate land, build a grazing plan, and understand what it takes to run a profitable grazing operation—whether you own cattle, lease land, or offer custom grazing.

Led by experienced Redwing Ranch educators and hosted in a collaborative, welcoming setting, the weekend includes classroom learning, real ranch math, pasture walks, and practical tools you can take home and use.

​

Participants will:

• Learn how to calculate stocking rates and stock days per acre (SDA)

• Use Web Soil Survey to evaluate forage productivity

• Practice grazing planning and enterprise budgeting

• Explore lease and custom grazing strategies that actually pencil out

• Walk away with a toolkit of Redwing Resources to use in your own context

This workshop includes on-ranch lodging, chef-prepared meals, and a deep dive into regenerative, number-driven ranching.
