The right farm fencing is critical for raising livestock well. From pastured poultry to small stock and cattle how do you pick which fencing will work for your animals, your terrain, and your budget?
Join us on Saturday, May 20 (5-7pm) for a community potluck and hands-on fencing demonstration at Brooklyn Hills Ranch in Amherst County.
