An Oklahoma woman prepares to leave her family ranch for law school in hopes of one day returning to continue their legacy

Kinzie Burtrum Borgerding grew up on her family’s cattle ranch in Stillwater, Oklahoma. One of five girls in a blended family, and the next generation of Burtrum Cattle, Kinzie navigates the family business and works with her father and grandfather to ensure the ranch is sustainable — both environmentally and for future generations.

While Kinzie always dreamt of continuing her family’s legacy on the ranch, the sudden passing of her mother and the support she received from the agriculture community brought that dream into focus as she looked for ways she could give back to the community. After completing a degree in Animal Science at Oklahoma State University, Kinzie knew she could be more impactful helping others ensure their ranches are sustainable for the future with a law degree.

In the first episode of Cattle Calling, follow Kinzie and get to know her family as she applies to law school, plans a wedding and spends one last summer at home on the ranch with her dad and sisters.
