Soil Health and Community Resilience: Stories from the North
Session #4 – Healing the Land with Farm Animals
Wednesday, March 24th - 6:30-8:00pm online!
Working with farm animals can be a fun and dynamic way to restore fertility and vitality to the land. Whether utilizing intensive rotational grazing to improve pastures or developing gardens without mechanical tillage through the help of chickens and pigs, there are a variety of ways working with farm animals nourishes soil health and builds community resilience.
Join in for barnyard tales from farmers who have prioritized healing the land and increasing soil health on their own farms through their partnerships with farm animals in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont: Diantha Jones of the Jones Farm in St. Johnsbury and Rebecca Beidler and Jeffrey Ellis of Peace of Earth Farm in Albany, and stories of assisting farms across New Hampshire from Bill Fosher, who brings 30 years of ruminant farming experience and more to his day job as a conservation planner with the NH Association of Conservation Districts.
