Please join us for the first of a series of workshops and presentations on the techniques and benefits of restorative grazing.
In this series you will learn how to apply methods of grazing to reduce costs, produce grass-fed livestock as a profitable income, increase the quality of soil, and provide support to a variety of wildlife.
We will view Part One of a newly released documentary, “Roots So Deep You Can See the Devil Down There.” This series follows how seven farmers in the US adopted these farming and grazing techniques over four years and continue today.
We’ll have the opportunity to meet local farmers who have applied the methods here in Virginia, as well as a local goat herder who utilizes her animals for brush and weed clearing.
You’ll have the chance to talk through the goals and questions for your property if you like.
