"Working with land and on land is something I’m really passionate about and excited for… I guess my ultimate goal is to manage some land myself and be part of managing a healthy ecosystem and environment around me. I think using cows to do that is a really cool way to do it, and really possible. It's an exciting way to manage land positively."
Meet Oliver, a ranch apprentice at Ranchlands' Paintrock Canyon Ranch in Hyattville, Wyoming. From his childhood on a small farm in Australia to his journey to America in search of large landscapes, Oliver shares his dedication to working with nature and his vision of using cattle for land management.
