Future Ranchers Cow Camp Offers Fun-Filled Day at the Ranch

Samantha Ferrat

Kids ages 10 to 18 can enjoy a fun-filled educational day on the ranch during the third annual Future Ranchers Cow Camp from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Aug. 23, at Ferrat Ranch Limousin in Toston.

"We're excited to share about what we do here at Ferrat Ranch Limousin with youth who are already involved in agriculture or who just want to learn more about cattle. We have a strong desire to share our knowledge of the cattle industry with others to spark interest or to fuel the passionate pursuit of production agriculture by today's youth in the future,” said Samantha Ferrat, co-owner of the ranch, who also works as a Membership Ambassador with Montana Farmers Union.

During the day, Montana Farmers Union staff and members will provide fun, hands-on activities focused on livestock selection, genetics, beef in food systems, soil health, plant identification, meat processing, ranch tours, and more.

Snacks and a hearty beef lunch are provided. The day’s activities are free for MFU members or $20 for nonmembers. Pre-registration is required.
