We continued our conversations on sustainability with Jim Chamberlain from Happy Dancing Turtle. He recently led 2 workshops at Back to Basics:
Grassland 2.0: A Community Vision for Agriculture -
The Pine River Watershed is one of five regional Grassland 2.0 Learning Hubs in the Midwest. We will
explore how grazing can improve farm productivity & enhance ecological services, such as wildlife habitat & carbon sequestration. The basic principles of a well-managed grazing system will be covered, & you'll learn how to get involved in Grassland 2.0, helping to develop a Community Vision for agriculture in our region.
Adaptive Grazing - Planning for Success - Jim Chamberlin -Natural Resources Conservation Services +
Livestock are the biological drivers of natural soil fertility. From poultry to cattle, this workshop will go in-depth on adaptive grazing principles & techniques that build soil health. The second half of the workshop will focus on developing your grazing plan & tools to measure success. Applicable
from one to one thousand acres.
