North Phillips County Ranch Tour

Please note the date change from June 16th to July 1st due to weather.

Join us for a day of community, networking, and education at the Ranchers Stewardship Alliance’s 2025 Ranch Tour. Brenda Murdock, Howie and JoAnn Hammond, and Wyatt and Andrea Lien will serve as ranch hosts as we tour north Phillips County.

This event is free of charge, though if you feel inspired to contribute, a suggested donation of $40 is appreciated to help cover expenses. Pre-registration is not required but strongly encouraged so we can make sure to have enough lunch.
