Jackson Bassett farms with his dad in Lovell, Wyoming, growing crops commonly found in the Bighorn Basin, like corn, dried beans, alfalfa, and barley, and running a cow-calf operation. He highlights the ways that non-crop habitats have served their operation. For example, grassy fields filter soil from runoff to promote water quality, and willow trees in the riparian habitat shade cows from the heat.
