About Us

In the beginning there was land…

Mother nature. The great outdoors. Over billions of years the continents were formed and in the most recent millions of years Nebraska was created complete with landscapes, waters, soils and climates in which evolved and thrived the fauna and flora. Then people arrived, first with what some call Natives, then the New Americans and ultimately the Moderns, all of whose activities focused on food, shelter, religion, education and recreation. It can be that simple. Surely, something is missing. This Web based narrative only scratches the surface and calls for a deeper look. Go Back to the Land.

The land we call Nebraska was formed by processes dating back billions of years and is today 77,000 square miles of diverse bedrock, landscapes, climates, soils, waters, plants, animals, micro-organisms and human populations. Before people arrived Nebraska was simply land.
