Ranch Raised with Karina Jones – Take Me Back!
This past weekend we took the kids over to Fort Robinson to check out their new aquatic center. It was like visiting an old friend.

Ranch Raised with Karina Jones – Heritage Found in the Garden
While I highly doubt that anyone has to “split the rhubarb and lilies equally” in their will, it is these living things that are so valuable to me that I hope my kids cherish more than diamonds and gold.

Ranch Raised with Karina Jones – The Season of…..
We will pitch a tent in the yard, swim in the local river, grab yummy drinks at some of our favorite coffee shops along the trails we travel, lay underneath these Sandhills stars, and breathe in this life that we are blessed with.

Ranch Raised with Karina Jones – Lake Day!
Having the confidence to keep my cool, and “Think, Don’t Sink,” was a difference maker in this situation. I’m not saying my front crawl technique was perfect, but I was able to make it to dry ground on my own accord because the family company I had that day was not really lifeguard material.

Ranch Raised with Karina Jones – Swimming with a Bull!
As I left off yesterday, I can tell you from first hand experience how important swimming lessons are, even for ranch kids who may never hit the pool other than that week of summer lessons.

About Karina Jones
Karina ranches with her husband, Marty, and 3 daughters near Broken Bow, NE. She grew up in western NE, with roots also in southwest SD. The cattle industry and raising kids is her passion.
Watching the cattle industry go the path that it has gone, she could no longer sit quietly at home checking cows, fixing fence, and doing all the everyday tasks wondering when some else was going to make it all better. As she became more active and outspoken on industry issues, she was asked to join the R-CALF USA staff in September 2020 as the Checkoff Petition Campaign manager. That position transcended into her current role as full time Field Director for R-CALF USA.
You can hear her almost every Friday on Your Ag Network’s Hot Barn Report that is broadcast on 60 radio stations with coverage in 9 states, where she deep dives into cattle industry issues and highlights R-CALF’s work on industry reforms. Listen to Ranch Raised on a Your Ag Network hometown station or www.youragnetwork.com where she talks about her daily life on the ranch.
Cattle producers are her people. She will meet you at the county fair, at the sale barn, or anywhere the dusty trail leads.
