SUMMARY:Intro to Soil Health & Rotational Grazing at Kirkview Farms
DESCRIPTION:At Kirkview Farms\, Cora\, Mike and their team practice regenerative agriculture – raising grass-finished beef\, pastured poultry\, goats and pork in a way that prioritizes animal welfare and environmental sustainability while producing high-quality meats. \nJoin us at the first of three soil-themed field days in this region to hear about how soil health takes priority and contributes to the overall wellbeing of Kirkview Farms. Participants will learn how the Kirkview team uses rotational grazing and other regenerative practices to improve the health and welfare of their livestock\, reduce input costs and care for the soil. No matter what type of farming and production you do\, you will learn something during this field day! \nA light dinner will be served. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen? Wednesday May 28 @ 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhere? Kirkview Farms\, Dalkeith\, ON \nCost? $20 for EFAO members\, $25 for non-members \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Kirkview Farms Rotational Grazing Field Day
DESCRIPTION:At Kirkview Farms\, Cora\, Mike and their team practice regenerative agriculture – raising grass-finished beef\, pastured poultry\, goats and pork in a way that prioritizes animal welfare and environmental sustainability while producing high-quality meats. \nJoin us for a half-day field day to learn how the Kirkview team uses rotational grazing to improve the health and welfare of their livestock\, reduce input costs and care for the soil. You will also get a chance to check out some of the tools they use as regenerative farmers\, including a demonstration of how electric bikes can be used as a climate-friendly tool in moving livestock across acreage. \nCora and Mike will give an overview of the grass fed market\, grass fed genetics\, pasture forages\, grazing plans\, fencing and water supply\, as well as logistics and timing of rotating the different groups of livestock through the paddocks. No matter what type of farming you do\, you will learn something during this field day! \nPreparation \nFeel free to bring your own bagged lunch for a community picnic after the tour. \nParking \nPeople are welcome to park at the farm. \nAccessibility information \nPortable washroom will be available. \nThis event is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for farmers with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Rotational Grazing Systems category. \nThis day is presented in partnership with Farmers for Climate Solutions and with funding support from the On-Farm Climate Action Fund. \nIn order to make our training and community building events accessible to all farmers and future farmers in Ontario\, EFAO strives to reduce financial barriers for registration by using a Pay What You Can model.

SUMMARY:Rotational Grazing at Kirkview Farms
DESCRIPTION:The team at Kirkview farms believes that adding rotational grazing to your land will provide significant benefits to your farm. It can aid in rebuilding soil health\, reducing input costs and improve animal health. Mike\, the host for this field day\, will review the holistic aspect of rotational grazing\, the how\, and the “dos and dont’s.” He will provide an overview of the grass-fed market\, grass-fed genetics\, pasture forages\, grazing plans\, fencing and water supply. \nThe majority of this field day will be spent on a tour of Kirkview farms to learn about the principles of rotational grazing in action: see how it supports our soil\, our animals\, the environment and in turn ourselves and our community. On the tour\, you will see how Kirkview farms is using the 6 regenerative farming principles combined with permaculture-based designs to create an unique agro-ecosystem model. \nAttendees are encouraged to explore regenerative agriculture as a topic before coming\, but no matter what type of farming you do\, you will learn something during this field day! \nBring your own bagged lunch for a community picnic during the day. Some refreshments will be provided. \nFor more information or to register\, visit: https://efao.ca/event/rotational-grazing-at-kirkview-farms/
