Now available for anyone thinking about or starting a business in targeted grazing for vegetation management with goats and sheep, here's an opportunity to learn from those who have been doing it. Some for a few years and some operating a successful business for over 20 years with small ruminants, like our Healing Hooves business. The American Sheep Industry Association has released "Targeted Grazing 101: Starting and Sustaining a Grazing Service Enterprise." The book is available in two formats: a hard copy book for $39.95, or as a PDF on a USB flash drive – which includes the 2006 handbook, as well – for $14.95. Both formats are available for purchase on the ASI website at www.SheepUSA.org/shop.
关于我们
Healing Hooves provides natural vegetation management services using hungry goats to clear weeds, brush, blackberries, etc. with professional targeted grazing techniques. Craig Madsen has been actively working as a “goat renter guy” since 2002, taking our herd of hungry ruminants across the state of Washington and occasionally over the borders into Idaho and Oregon. When you rent our goats, you get Craig’s expertise in range management and his handiness with a machete as part of the bargain. Craig can also coach you on managing your own small acreage with your own small herd. The keys are: 1. Knowing what you want the land to look like. Open pasture? Shaded forest fire break? Planted back to native vegetation? Just keep those darn blackberries from taking over the hillside? 2. Planning your grazing to put the right animals at the right density at the right time for the right length of time on each piece of land in order to create tour desired future landscape. Craig is trained as an educator in Allan Savory's Holistic Management system, and is available for workshops and presentations.

It has been said that we cannot change the amount of precipitation that we receive, but science is proving that idea wrong. Evapotranspiration for vegetation plays a critical role in the small water cycle. The impact of the land management on the small water cycle is being overlooked in our narrow focus on reducing carbon. We need to take a more holistic approach to managing our landscape.
