Hello there, I'm Lynique. Farming and ranching is in my blood and I'm proud to pass the tradition on to my children. I decided to create "Bridgering the Gap - Life in Rural America" because there's so much to share and so many things I wish I knew that I had to learn the hard way. I also wanted to create a space for a community to come together and share our lifetime of experiences and get back to our roots of being self-sufficient. 

 

A not-for-profit education platform and company has been an idea I've had for many years, but the birth of my first son Bridger, was the final push I needed to take this idea and make it a reality. We are bridging the gap between where society is now and where we need to be in order to provide a brighter space for future generations. 

 

My intention is to provide you with tips and tricks for self-reliance (even if you live in an apartment), the importance of livestock (and how to raise your own), a few of my favorite life hacks and some product reviews.

 

My partner Brian and I run a pack station and outfitting business along with our commercial cattle herds and I'm also a commercial fisherman, a teacher and own a construction company. Needless to say, we have livestock up to our ears, and work seven days a week, but they say if you do what you love you never work a day in your life and we love the ranching lifestyle and our children seems to be pretty tickled about it too.
