Beyond BarnsVisiting Ohio with Carie and Jarrod StarrI took a trip to Ohio (virtually) to talk with Carie and Jarrod Starr - owners of Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch. I loved getting to learn how they started from ground zero and built up to what they have today. We talked about everything from transporting bison, testing agritourism ideas, and the camping option they have at Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch. If camping at a bison ranch isn't on your bucket list, now is the time to add it!
