Grazing Networks

Our greatest resource is each other

Farmer to farmer education at its finest

Grazing networks are a vital resource, fostering strong connections among members and facilitating the exchange of grazing knowledge and experience. These networks vary in size and structure but share a common goal of building closer ties for greater information sharing.

Pasture walks serve as the main method of exchanging insights, while winter meetings and conferences offer additional opportunities to stay connected and learn from invited speakers and research presentations.
