Building a Native Agritourism Ecosystem - AIANTA Webinar Series

Learn from the owner of DX Beef and The DX Ranch, Kelsey Ducheneaux (Cheyenne River Sioux), and how their passion to help their consumers reconnect with their food source has driven them to build DX Beef into a Native Agritourism Ecosystem and how their willingness to share their skills and culture with guests resulted in The DX Ranch. Webinar by American Indian Alaska Native Tourism Association.

Located on the Cheyenne River Sioux Reservation, The DX Ranch is home to DX Beef. Surrounded by the vast prairie of nature, culture, and opportunity, DX Beef wants to connect consumers with the landscape that the Lakota stewards have maintained for millennia. The culture, tradition and story of the DX Beef industry is affixed alongside that of their food. 

The DX Ranch operates vacation-stays for guests in Kelsey’s two bunkhouses. Guest choose the experiences they want, from horseback lessons to trail rides though the waving grass and rolling hills of her ranch, or rolling up their sleeves and helping with repairing fencing, sorting cattle and other ranching chores. Through DX Designs, Kelsey sells her Custom Beadwork.
