Among the ranching, western and agricultural communities, Baxter Black’s columns and humor throughout the last 40+ years have been required reading. He put into plain words, with generous portions of humor, what was often thought to be difficult to communicate to those outside the agricultural community. As a large animal veterinarian, his credentials were always impeccable. And his columns and later books only upped the ante. Baxter Black passed away at the age of 77 in Benson, Ariz., on June 10, 2022. He will be greatly missed.

Black penned over 30 books and his syndicated column appeared in more than 100 publications across the country. He was a Christian and that faith and worldview infused all of his works.

Rachel Gabel over at The Fence Post magazine just put out a nice article about him and I wanted to share the link.

My latest article with photos has just been published online on the website of The Fence Post magazine. It will be in this coming Monday’s print edition, as well. The article and photography cover the 2022 Farm & Ranch Day (Saturday May 28th) put on by the Colorado Agricultural Leadership Foundation (CALF) at their facilities located on the historic Lowell Ranch outside of Castle Rock, CO. Please read the article, where you will see quotes from CALF youth participants (Kenzie Summervill and Isabelle Carlblom) as well as hear from the CEO of CALF (Brooke Fox) and its new Program Manager, Alyce Todd. Click on the link or the image to get to the story and photos!

The Colorado Agricultural Leadership Founding Foundation (CALF) held its annual Farm & Ranch Day on May 28, 2022 on the grounds of the historic Lowell Ranch outside of Castle Rock, CO. CALF’s mission is to connect youth and agriculture and raise the awareness of the importance of agriculture for our future. I am working on a story and photos to be published in The Fence Post magazine in the near future, but created a short video of the event to be shared and enjoyed in the meantime. It is located on the Rumble platform. Just click on the link or the image to go to the video.

The historic Lowell Ranch outside of Castle Rock, CO boasts the iconic red barn and twin silos that serve as well-known landmarks to guide people to the site of the Colorado Agricultural Leadership Foundation (CALF), which operates on acreage set aside for that purpose by the Lowell family.

Record Setting Brothers!

One of the great things about county fairs are all the young people raising and showing animals. Raising and showing animal projects teaches and imparts respect, accountability, work ethic, and yes… humility (farm animals will always end up teaching everyone humility at one time or another).

A pair of brothers at the 2021 Douglas County Fair in Castle Rock, CO learned all those lessons and more. Job Knight (15-years-old) and Silas McQuate (9-years-old) also learned how to be respectful and gracious while sweeping the top Market Beef Steer awards at the fair and setting auction records in the fair’s 2021 Junior Livestock Sale.

I was able to get a chance to talk with Job and Silas, along with their parents Seth and Jenn, on the last day of the Douglas County Fair. You can find my article and photos about their accomplishments on The Fence Post magazine’s website: https://www.thefencepost.com/news/oh-brothers/

Big brother Job Knight and Diesel (left), along with younger brother Silas McQuate and Superman (right), made a family clean sweep of the Grand Champion Market Beef Steer and Reserve Grand Champion Market Beef Steer at the 2021 Douglas County Fair in Castle Rock, CO. On top of those awards, Job picked up the Reserve Sr. Showmanship award and Silas won the Jr. Showmanship Champion buckle. As if that wasn’t enough, the Larkspur, CO brothers both set auction records for the winning bids on their Maine Angus cross steers in Douglas County Fair’s 2021 Junior Livestock Sale.
Happy Flag Day fellow Americans!
