I forgot to mention in my original email that the Ruby Valley Conservation District and Ranchers are offering a full-day seminar with Kathy Voth on Wednesday 3/23 in Ruby Valley. The full-day seminar in Ruby Valley has 4 ranch openings left. It is $200/ranch (as many helpers as you want to bring). The full-day training will give you all the tools to you need to train your own cows to start eating weeds this year! Contact Lance Knudsen at 775-779-2368 if you would like to attend the Ruby Valley training.
The 2-hr seminar on the 24th at Great Basin College is an overview of what Kathy can accomplish with cows but we will not have the appropriate amount of time to get into how you actually train your own cows. It will also have a discussion period for ranchers and agency folks to try and solve the weed problem together using the tools Kathy is teaching in Ruby Valley. Since the material being presented is totally different for each of the seminars some folks may find it worthwhile to attend both days.
Sorry for the confusion for those people who were planning to attend the Ruby Valley full-day seminar. Please note that you are going to get a totally different experience in Ruby Valley.
