What is a Pasture Walk?
 
 
Next Pasture Walk
 
 


A Pasture Walk is an informal gathering of livestock owners who are interested in the grazing aspect of raising livestock.  They are generally held onsite of a working pasture of a local grazier.  Topics for discussion can range from Grass and Legume species selection, to Soil Sampling and Fertility, to Fencing and Waterline Layout, to Rotational Grazing.  Topics selected for each individual meeting are selected based on relevant needs and issues of the host farmer and the issues that each season of the year presents.  Discussion is generally lead by an experienced grazier, but each individual who attends brings their own set of knowledge and experiences to share with others.  Pasture walks are an informal environment where farmers can gather together to learn from each other.

From April through October, the SWCD looks for volunteers to host a pasture walk on the 3rd Tuesday of every month.  They are held in the evening to accommodate daytime schedules and can last for several hours.  There is no cost to anyone who would like to attend.
