    Always nice to see the happenings on your farm. When goats and sheep go to the brush clearing and solar farm do you still manage that grazing or how does that deal work?

    Thank you for all your insight on adaptive grazing building soil. Your wise beyond your years what a wonderful way to raise a family. I’m glad you’re sharing this with the world to understand it benefits to the soil. Do you put up tree swallow houses and do you have a purple Martin house? I know they’re wonderful Insectivores ?

    Thanks for the kind words. No I do not have any bird houses up. I would like to do that someday among many other things but the stage of life I’m in and the time I have I’ve gotta focus on top priority things. As long as we’re working with nature the birds all the beneficial insects and all other wildlife will come as if we’re willing to build the habitat for them! That’s one of the best things about regenerative ag and building soil!
