SUMMARY:Intro to Agroforestry + Silvopasture 101
DESCRIPTION:Join Savanna Institute’s Grazing Technical Provider\, Julie Hager\, and see Agroforestry in action at Hillside Pastures with our Silvopasture by subtraction system. \n\n\n\nSilvopasture describes trees integrated into livestock pastures. Farmers graze animals on grasses and the fruit\, nut and seedpods that fall from the trees. Well-managed livestock can be vital to making farms function as healthy ecosystems. Livestock help clear weeds and control insects and pests. They scratch and dig to prepare ground for planting and spread and cycle nutrients through excretion. A silvopasture system can be established by subtracting trees from a wooded lot\, or by adding trees to a pasture. \n\n\n\nLearn all about it and bring your questions to this tour! Hiking involved on this tour so please be prepared. Emergency-only bathroom onsite. \n\n\n\nAll ages welcome! Register here

SUMMARY:Webinar: Electric Livestock Fencing—from Poultry to Cattle
DESCRIPTION:During this webinar led by the Rodale Institute Farm Innovations team\, they will focus on designing\, installing\, and using a variety of styles of portable and semi portable electric fences. \n\n\n\nThey will begin by looking at maps as a tool for planning your fence outline. Then look at the variety of fences available to suit the needs of your operation. They will cover poultry netting\, 4-5 strand fencing for goats and sheep\, 1-2 strand fencing suitable for larger animals\, perimeter fencing\, subdividing paddocks within your field\, 3-D anti deer fencing\, grounding\, and energizers. They will discuss how to move livestock within fencing and some of the successes and failures they have had  at the Midwest Organic Center. Finally\, they will examine the age-old adage “the best fence is a good pasture.” \n\n\n\nRegister for the webinar at https://rodaleinstitute.org/events/webinar-electric-livestock-fencing-from-poultry-to-cattle/
