”We're not six year olds anymore. We're not children anymore. We're adult children and we're trying to raise our families too and continue a legacy. So there has to be grace on both sides.”
In this episode of Farming on Purpose, I visit with Paige Dulaney, a ranch wife and mom of three from northeast Colorado. We talk about balancing motherhood and ranching, the real-life challenges of farm transition, and raising kids to love the land. Paige shares honest insights about building a life in agriculture, bringing kids along for the work, and why open conversations are key to protecting your family's legacy.
Key Topics:
Balancing motherhood, ranch life, and family
Managing cattle across multiple counties
Navigating farm transition with family
Raising kids in agriculture and involving them in daily work
Importance of early conversations about farm succession
Building relationships in agriculture and rural communities
Finding peace with maintaining instead of constant growth
Hope for the future through connection and renewed interest in agriculture
You can find Paige on TikTok for more of her story and a behind-the-scenes look at life on the ranch.
