Weatherford Democrat spotlights holistic management at Bear Creek

April 24, 2012 by Administrator

In Earth Day news, the Weatherford Democrat reports that our work at Bear Creek Unit “sets the standard” for environmentally sustainable ranching.

In “Managing land to protect water,” our Vice President and Board Chairman Clinton Josey describes holistic management as “treating the soil, the plants on the surface, the animals and the ranchers as a whole.”

“It’s a balance, Josey said, and when ranchers consider all the elements, it results in a healthy watershed — the area that drains to a common waterway — and a healthier life for everyone who lives in it.”
