SUMMARY:EMRA | Low Stress Stockmanship Clinic with Dawn Hnatow
DESCRIPTION:When handled properly\, livestock will develop trust and respect\, which translates into better weight gains\, less sickness\, easy gathers\, and efficient corral work. Join Eastern Montana Regenerative Agriculture (EMRA) in Miles City\, MT on Friday\, July 17\, 2026 to learn more. \nDawn Hnatow\, owner and founder of Cattle Up Stockmanship\, was born into a ranching family in Canada. She has worked with livestock her entire life and spent numerous years under the mentorship of Bud Williams. \nCattle Up’s overall philosophy of proper stockmanship is achieved by utilizing their techniques of their mentors\, Bud and Eunice Williams. They have taken the valuable wisdom imparted to them\, put it into practice\, and continue learning from the cattle they work with every day\, while doing their part to keep them in a healthy mental state. One of their core beliefs is that livestock\, when handled properly\, will develop trust and respect (not fear)\, which translates into a wide variety of positive results\, including better weight gains\, less sickness\, eaty gathers\, efficient corral work\, and happier cattle/handlers. \nDue to the limited spots available\, registration is NON-REFUNDABLE.

SUMMARY:The Heart of the West: Beetreat Building connections + knowledge around the importance of bees  with Sarah Red-Laird + Ginelle Dekker
DESCRIPTION:Building connections + knowledge around the importance of bees with Sarah Red-Laird + Ginelle Dekker \nJoin J Bar L for an immersive four-day retreat in the pristine landscape of the Centennial Valley\, Montana\, where art\, science\, and conservation converge. The Heart of the West Beetreat offers a unique opportunity to deepen your connection to pollinators\, land\, and community through hands-on learning\, creative expression\, and meaningful conversation. \nSet at the beautiful J-L Ranch in the Centennial Valley\, this retreat brings together women from diverse backgrounds to explore the critical role of native bees and honey bees in our ecosystems. Through guided pollinator habitat walks\, hands-on beekeeping experiences\, yoga and mindfulness practices\, nature journaling\, and a cyanotype art workshop\, you will gain both knowledge and creative tools to carry this work forward in your own communities. \nYou will receive a plant press to collect wildflowers and botanical specimens from the ranch landscape. These collections become the raw material for your final creative project: a cyanotype artwork that captures the beauty and interconnection of pollinators and their habitat. No prior artistic\, beekeeping\, or scientific experience is required—just curiosity\, openness\, and a desire to see the natural world through new eyes. \nThis retreat emphasizes spaciousness and connection\, with ample free time to explore the ranch\, rest\, reflect\, and build relationships with other participants. Whether you are a land steward\, artist\, educator\, conservationist\, beekeeper\, or simply someone who cares deeply about the living world\, you will find community here.
