Today (July 12, 2022) is the registration deadline to participate in the “Goats, Grazing and More” pasture walk this weekend near Midland.
You’ll see how the England Family has improved their landscape by grazing goats, cattle and poultry to best use their natural resources. You’ll hear firsthand from the Englands and two other producers about how the different species graze, what it’s like to have them together in the same paddocks or when it might be good to separate the species.
The Englands will give details about choosing to diversify their operation using agricultural practices that work with nature. They’ll show facilities, fencing, and discuss managing different species. NRCS officials will explain USDA programs available for fencing, water and pasture development.
The Saturday (July 16) event is co-sponsored by the Dakota Goat Association and is free to their members. Non-members will be charged $10 per person or $20 per family.
