Garfield County, Nebraska

Garfield County is a small slice of Nebraska, sitting pretty in the north-central part of the state. Blink and you might miss it. But that’d be a shame.
Burwell is the county seat and is the only town around these parts. The rest? Wide-open spaces. The North Loup River cuts through in the southern region.
Ranching is big here. Always has been. You’ll see more cows than people most days. But don’t think it’s boring. The Burwell Rodeo draws crowds every summer. It’s a big deal here.
