In collaboration with Park County Extension, Gallatin County Extension and specialists from MSU Extension, a farm and ranch estate planning program was held. The program consisted of two, 3-hour, in-person seminars, one full day in-person seminar and one virtual seminar. Participants learned about numerous issues that focused on the financial, personal and legal aspects of estate planning. Eighty agriculture families were invited to participate and 12 different ranches were represented in this series. Of those that participated, three have indicated that they have begun working on estate planning documents as a result of the workshops.
