What you’ll learn
This is an immersive 5-day experience that combines classroom and hands on learning.
Everything you wanted to know about ranching but didn’t know who to ask
Maybe you have been dreaming of a career in agriculture, but you did not grow up in a farming or ranching family. It can be hard to know where to start. At New Cowgirl Camp you will be learning from lifelong ranchers and seasoned professionals. No question is too basic or too advanced.
Cowgirl Camp curriculum includes:
Basic farm skills, fencing, and facilities
Animal husbandry and low-stress animal handling techniques
Raising and working with horses
Managing your farm or ranch for resilience
Relationship building
Farm business management
Leadership and creating positive change
Working in the field of agriculture and seeking opportunities
Should you sign up for New Cowgirl camp?
If you—
Are considering a career in agriculture, but aren’t sure where to start;
Have taken ag-related classes, and now want practical experience;
Are thinking about a career change to agriculture from another field;
Are just curious about farming or ranching life;
Are an established livestock producer seeking to improve your technical skills and knowledge;
Want to network with some amazing, forward thinking, and supportive women; or
Looking for a rich experience in a ranch setting.
The New Cowgirl Camp is for you.
At New Cowgirl Camp you’ll learn about ranching heritage and traditions from a fourth-generation rancher. And you’ll learn about current, science-based regenerative practices that will put your future farm or ranch business on a sustainable footing.
Whether you want to work on a farm or ranch or, maybe, own your own farm or ranch business someday, you will benefit from New Cowgirl Camp.
There is good demand for workers in the field of agriculture but it is hard to find people with skills and up-to-date training to fill jobs. There are many retiring farmers and ranchers who would like to find someone qualified to take over their operations. If you plan to buy, transition into, or create your own farm or ranch business, New Cowgirl Camp will help you prepare. You must be at least 18 years of age to participate.
