Across the country, professionals are helping aging farmers and ranchers make plans for their land. These “Land Transfer Navigators” are securing the future of agriculture one farm, family, and community at a time. In this episode, ride along with Dan Skeeters—a Navigator from Colorado Cattlemen’s Agricultural Land Trust—as he supports two different ranching families through the ins and outs of succession planning. But be warned. Among the tales of triumph are moments of heartbreak: sold-off cattle herds and uncertain futures, lost family land and shattered identities. Dan and other Navigators are right there through it all, offering advice, encouragement, and hope.
