In this workshop Jade Killoran will discuss multispecies pastures, how to establish and manage them, their benefits for soil & stock production, how they can contribute to building carbon in your soil and increasing farm productivity and resilience.

We’ll join a local farmer to walk through his multispecies pasture, he’ll share his approach & we’ll check out what’s happening below the ground in his pasture. Morning tea & lunch provided.
