Workshop participants will have the opportunity to learn about improving pastures through grazing management, renovating pastures to improve quality and quantity of forage, sizing pasture for different livestock species, fencing options, and providing water in pastures. The instructor for this workshop will be Lisa Kempisty, Dairy/Livestock Educator with Cornell Cooperative Extension of Chautauqua County, who has worked with local dairy and livestock producers for 30+ years on managing pastures and grazing strategies for raising healthy and productive animals.
