Aor 192: Ranching on the House of the Sun with Greg Friel and Jordan Jokiel
From The Art of Range Podcast · 01:14:05
Show by Tip Hudson
Haleakalā is the dormant volcano on Maui. Haleakalā Ranch occupies the northwestern flank of the volcano, streching down to the ocean. Greg Friel has managed Haleakalā Ranch for more than 30 years. In this episode he and Jordan Jokiel, who leads the ranch’s weed control, forestry, and conservation work, talk about managing around a very large Axis deer herd, accomplish conservation goals, and manage fire risk. They explain why they now see managed grazing as a key tool for reducing fine fuels near communities. Greg also talks about his path from a city kid on Oahu who wanted to be a cowboy to managing a family-owned ranch founded in 1888. The Art of Range is supported by RanchBot Monitoring Solutions.
