Stewart, a rancher herself, says by showing people of color the opportunities and providing positive experiences with agriculture and ranch animals, the event could help the industry grow. "I want people to come and have these positive interactions because future farmers and ranchers," she said. Another way Stewart and others use ranch land is therapeutically. Stewart says she's an abuse survivor and when she got on a horse to look for her hogs, she realized how therapeutic it was for her. Now, she trains horses that can be used to help others.
