Holistic Management Workshop to be Held Contact: Cindy Hulm, Program Support Assistant

The South Dakota Grasslands Coalition, Ziebach and Tri-County Conservation Districts, Tatanka RC&D, and the Natural Resources Conservation Service are proud to organize another 3 day workshop on Holistic Resource Management. It will be held Tuesday, October 8 through Thursday, October 10 from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm each day at the Cheyenne River Motel Conference Room in Eagle Butte, South Dakota.

This workshop is being presented by Joshua Dukart, a land and livestock manager from Bismarck, ND. He is a Certified Educator of Holistic Management who speaks and teaches regularly throughout the United States and Canada. With his current ranching activities and diverse experiences teaching and consulting, he will share real-life examples of Holistic Management in action.

Holistic Management is a new management approach helping people improve their quality of life, generate wealth and manage their resources. It’s a process of goal setting, decision making and monitoring that people throughout the world are using to restore vitality to their ranches, businesses, communities, and the natural resources we all depend on.

This workshop is highly recommended for producers by past participants. Kayla Anderson, Lemmon, SD who attended this workshop said, “It really made us think more outside the box of how we run our operation. We learned that there really is no wrong way of doing things and to be more proactive with our thinking ahead instead of being reactive to possible outcomes to situations.”

The cost of the workshop is $200 which includes textbook, workbook, lunch and breaks. Each ranch may bring an additional participant at a cost of $100. Class size is limited to 30 people, so call now to pre-register. To pre-register or for more details, call Tatanka RC&D at 605-244-5222 Ext 3.
