Regenerative grazing

Regenerative grazing is a pasture management system using livestock grazing on a variety of perennial and annual forages.  

Pastures are divided into smaller areas called paddocks. Paddock size is based on number of animals and frequency they are moved. The first animals in the system are our sheep, goats, or cows.  Leaving behind nutrient rich poop, they will graze for no more than one day before they are moved to the next paddock.  Behind the first batch of animals comes our chickens. The chickens will scratch at the ground and spread their manure and the manure of the previous animals,  as well they eat any bugs and weeds they find in the pasture.  The chickens move to the next area of the paddock the next day.  This paddock is now allowed to rest for 60 days or more before any animals will return to it.
