Pasture Walk in Windsor County

October 15, 2015 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

The pasture walk will be through pastures which use the crowd method of rotational grazing. The high lights will include: identifying the pH of our soils by looking at the plants, a discussion of the challenges with parasite control and how rotational crowd grazing attempts to address these issues  and various pasture renovations methods including complete sub-soiling with reseeding and over seeding with the use of Suffolk horses.  (or over seeding with a little help from our friends Sara and Betsy (Suffolk horses).  Accompanying the walk will be Debbie Zink, who was a member of William C. Campbell’s 2015 Nobel Prize winning team for medicine that discovered Ivermectin.
