Our Amazing Grasslands ~ Rasmussen-Lehman 33 Ranch, Belvidere, South Dakota

“The fact is that grass is our primary product and our primary thing that we raise is cattle. But the grass is more important than the cattle. And it's hard to put into words. I mean it's so many things. We're just proud of this family and our grandparents, our mom and dad that gave us this opportunity and Dan, Blake, Dawn, and I know get to see the next generation wanting to be involved, it's awesome.” - Amy Lehman
