What is Grazing for Good?
The programme comprises of three main elements:
1. A series of on-farm events and webinars, covering a wide range of topics and skills relating to regenerative grazing. The topics covered will be shaped by the needs of the farmers in the region.
2. 1:1 or small group peer mentoring on topics linked to grazing management, flexibly tailored to meet farmers’ needs.
3. Working with three focus farms who have already made the change to regenerative grazing methods to demonstrate how these approaches work on farms in this region.
And on these farms we will be collecting detailed baseline data to provide evidence on how regenerative grazing methods can support viable food production while enhancing soil health, sequestering carbon, and reducing dependence on inputs, therefore delivering economic resilience.
Pasture for Life will support you in your farming journey no matter what stage you are at.
Whether you are in the process of making changes to your grazing system and need help with the transition, or you want to learn more about the options, sign up to join a group of like-minded farmers.
