I picked up a scythe from ScytheSupply last year and have been perfecting my technique. Now mowing the orchard with the scythe to get last year's growth and this year's first cutting cleared out. Lots of thatch present, so it's a lot slower going than a well-mowed area.

We have been slowly clearing out some of the shrubby snowberry and aspen saplings to create a more open area for pasture grasses and forbes to grow. Our design plan is for a series of grazing cells, accessed from a central laneway and with sections of food forest planted along contour swales in...

Our small flock of romeldale(CVM) sheep are the main workforce at this farm! We chose this breed for their amazing, fine wool that comes in a variety of colours but they also raise fantastic meat lambs. The ewes are prolific, nearly always having twins and occasionally triplets, and great moms. T...
This project is a small scale permaculture farm that I have been developing since 2016. My goal with this project is to create a place that people can see permaculture in action and learn about regenerative methods of production. It is completely off grid - no power and no water other than what ...
We are a small family farm run by Julie Sheen and Tyler Pratt. We grow organic seeds, produce, and flowers just north of Pocatello in fertile Snake River valley soil. By using natural methods of pest control including row cover and diverse plantings, we keep our produce chemical-free. We strive t...
