From the kitchen table to the boardroom table, the USDA brings people together across the nation for: healthier food, natural resources and people; a stronger agricultural industry; and economic growth, jobs and innovation. Each Friday, meet those farmers, producers and landowners through our #FridaysOnTheFarm stories. Visit local farms, ranches, forests and resource areas where USDA customers and partners do right and feed everyone.
Bees are pretty happy creatures on Jim Keegan’s ranch in Bear Valley, Calif., and, with help of a conservation easement, the bees will be happy there forever.
Keegan Ranch is home to 2,500 pristine acres of wildflowers, cattle, horses and those happy buzzing bees. The property is so breathtaking that sightseers and tourists stop to gaze in awe.
