Building big: Cattle barn project clears path for next generation

Before the end of the year, the first load of feeder cattle will fill the newly constructed barn on the Smit farm in southeastern South Dakota’s Turner County. It’s a major milestone for Kaleb Smit, 25, who is starting a cattle feeding enterprise, and it’s been a long time coming. Kaleb, his wife Liz, with their 6-month-old son, Nash, are the fourth generation to join the Smit family farm north of Centerville. Kaleb and his dad, Phil Smit, spent the better part of two years planning, working with different government agencies, lenders and engineers, and penciling out how he could come back to work on the farm where he grew up. Expanding a farming operation by purchasing land is a daunting prospect for many farmers, young or old. Average land values in Turner County were $10,750 per acre in 2025 and cash rents averaged $284 per acre, according to South Dakota State University Extension’s South Dakota Farm Real Estate Survey. That’s a big reason why the Smits chose to expand the cattle side of their operation. Investing in livestock barns involves more than a small chunk of change. Kaleb’s project is paid for through a mix of grants, low-interest loans

Two-year, $6.5 million expansion of Outdoor Campus complete

After more than two years of construction, the Outdoor Campus in Sioux Falls has completed a roughly $6.5 million expansion to provide more classes, year-round archery and hands-on lessons for the expanding Sioux Falls population and beyond. The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks Department facility, at 4500 S. Oxbow Ave., recently celebrated the moment with a public open house and a ribbon-cutting last week, including the Greater Sioux Falls Chamber of Commerce , Gov. Larry Rhoden and Sioux Falls Mayor Christine Erickson. What does the expansion include? The expansion includes an indoor archery range, three new classrooms, a game-processing room and a teaching kitchen created from two former classrooms. The project also updated restrooms, added a family restroom and a nursing mother's room and expanded the wildlife-viewing area overlooking the oxbow. For Outdoor Campus Director David Parker, the reason for expanding was relatively straightforward. "It was just naturally time to grow since the city was growing," Parker said. The Outdoor Campus building dates to 1997, and although smaller improvements had been made, including a museum update in 2011, Parker said the building's footprint had remained largely unchanged. Space had become particularly tight for educational programs. The campus previously had
