From Silicon Valley to the High Planes of Western Nebraska
Welcome to this episode of the Carbon Catch Up podcast produced by Rabo Carbon Bank. Today we have Logan Pribbeno over on the podcast. Logan is a 5th generation farmer at the ‘Wine Glass Ranch’, dating back 135 years. Wine Glass Ranch is a team of progressive cattle producers, located in southwest Nebraska where the Sandhills meet the sand-sage hills of Colorado. They graze the easy-keeping cows and program-verified yearlings on their family-owned ranch and rented grazing lands elsewhere, and have as a mission ‘productive and progressive plants & animals’. Logan and Brianna Pribbeno moved back to Logan's family's ranch in 2012. Moving from California's Silicon Valley to the High Plains of western Nebraska came with its own set of adjustments. However, since they've moved back, they've adjusted to live on the ranch that's been in Logan's family for five generations. The Pribbenos implemented some new management practices -- with a focus on getting the most out of every acre by using Management-intensive grazing and grazing annual forage crops.
