On today’s episode, we’re joined by Adam & Genevieve of AG Homestead. They live in Durango on a 5 acre property, where they raise chickens, ducks and pigs. In addition to pasture raising animals, they work with the soil using a range of new and old practices to maximize soil health, product and production quality.
Throughout our conversation, we explore the difference between conventional confinement animal agriculture versus outdoor pasture raising. We talk about the rotational grazing system that AG Homestead has employed to contribute to the revitalization of the ecosystems on their property, and the many ways that farm animals can bring new life to the land.
