The Wild Side of Business: COVID-19 Protection Plan for Camps and Lodges
When COVID-19 showed up in earnest last March here in the U.S., who would have envisioned that our world would still be so encumbered by this dreadful virus? About the time that it seemed as though our society was beginning to move in a direction of getting back to our normal daily routines and practices, prevalence rates of COVID-19 spiked in many areas of the country, reminding us that it’s still too early to let our guard down regarding safety measures that address disease transmission. For those business proprietors who are running hunting, fishing and other nature-based operations with lodging, there are several steps you can take to help mitigate concerns associated with COVID-19.
Featured Listing: Caddo Ranch
15 minutes from Canton, 30 minutes from Tyler and 70 miles from Dallas, Texas, Caddo Ranch is comprised of 491.8 acres, fenced and cross fenced, with a primary 20+ acre stocked lake and three additional ponds (two of which are spring fed). The ranch has a longhorn cattle operation featuring grazing pastureland and three hayfields with mature Tifton grass. There is a 10-stall main barn featuring ranch hand quarters, a raquetball court and an exterior horse walker. A pipe-fenced corral is across from the barn with outdoor lighting and restrooms for public ranch events.
Brewing Up New Uses for Maple Syrup
My mission was, and is, to find new products to make maple syrup. The maple industry is growing experientially! In 2000, New York made 200,000 gallons of maple syrup. The USDA statistics estimated 820,000 gallons in 2019. The average American only uses a few ounces a year of maple syrup. Yes, to put on pancakes! But, the average American uses large amounts of beer, wine, and alcohol. It came together for me: maple is a sugar; sugar can be used in alcohol. If maple-style beers gain mass appeal, the sales implications for maple producers could be considerable.

On the Cover: Lawson Ranch
Lawson Ranch, homestead in the 1860s and once owned by the late Bing Crosby, encompasses just under 3,000 deeded acres and is located 45 miles north of Elko, Nevada. Completely reminiscent of the Old West, yet complete with updated modern conveniences—including your own private airstrip and large airplane hangar, a full ranch headquarters, six center-drive hay pivots, the ability to run over 600 pair of cattle and easy access to town—this is the quintessential turnkey western cattle ranch.
