Bluesette Campbell was raised by a single mom and grew up on a sheep ranch in south central Montana with her sister where she began her gardening journey out of necessity. In 2009, she parked the tiller for the last time. Over the next 17 years, her holistic, regenerative, no-till gardening journey blossomed.  Mirroring the land stewardship principles of their cattle ranch, Bluesette’s garden transformed through development of healthy ecosystem processes.

The B-C Ranch has been embedded in holistic practice for 40 years and has more than doubled their stocking rate on the same land base due to their grazing stewardship. This experience along with many others, has inspired her to become a Holistic Management Certified Educator, consultant, speaker and mentor.

She is currently the President of Holistic Management Canada whose purpose is to empower people to regenerate land and communities. Bluesette’s interests lie strongly in human resource and team development bolstered by a foundation of lived experience in ranch management, regenerative planned grazing and profit-forward financial planning.

Bluesette is a self-professed enthusiast of getting cozy with change. When she is not ranching or teaching, you will probably catch her building inclusive communities, gardening unconventionally, practicing chemistry in the kitchen or running (just because she can).

Seedy Saturday

RHS participated in Regina Seedy Saturday on March 7th at the U of R Riddell Centre. We had a very successful day the Riddell Centre was busy the whole day.

Thanks to our members’ generous donations of seeds, RHS had a full table of seeds to give away.  

A special thank you goes out to members who volunteered their time to work at the RHS table by helping package seeds, organizing the seed table and answering questions about seeds, gardening and RHS membership.

The display also featured information on this year’s GRIN grant opportunities, in partnership with the Regina Public Interest Research Group (RPIRG).
