This week, the Duncan Family contributed to feeding the world by gathering their annual calf crop and sending them to others who would raise them for market. Raising stock, “ranching,” is an age old way of life a culture that is passed down through generations. The four generations in the Duncan Family presented in these photographs, illustrate that living off the land and turning forage from lands unsuitable for vegetable crops and grown into beef still persists. Since approximately 1968, rancher and cattle buyer, Dave Stix has purchased the Duncan calf crop. Through generations, Schroeder Law Offices purposefully supports these ranching families in developing and maintaining their water and forage use needs to support their heritage and way of life.
