Crossing the Urban-Rural Divide

Overview

In 2005, just as it seemed Oregon’s urban-rural divide had grown into an unbridgeable chasm, a handful of ranchers from rural Grant county did the unexpected.

Follow a group of students as they share in both the joy and the misery that comes with real rural life.
