Boone County and other area counties were part of a Nebraska Beef Experience Tour held June 7-8 for a group of 24 influencers from across the country.

The educational tour is offered to help attendees better understand the beef production process and how the various segments of the beef community work together to raise quality beef products.
The attendees experienced the Nebraska Sandhills at Wagonhammer Ranch near Bartlett and Glaser Farms, an organic grass-finished beef operation near Spalding.
