Grazing Seminar
RED LION A Red Lion-area
supplier of fencing and related
supplies will be holding a
rotational grazing seminar on
Thursday, March 26. Seminar host
Scott Taylor notes that the focus of
the meeting will be on getting the
most from your pastures through
rotational grazing utilizing
Gallagher spring-tight high tensile
power fence systems.
Keynote speaker for the
program will be Henry Swayze, a
Vermont-based sheep breeder who
has experience in applying New
Zealand fencing techniques to
dairy, beef and sheep operations.
The program begins at 10 a.m.
with a discussion of dairy fencing
techniques. After lunch Swayze
will discuss rotational grazing
systems for beef and sheep
producers. The program, in
cluding lunch, will be provided free
of charge.
The event will be held at Taylor’s
residence. Take Route 24 south
through Red Lion, and turn right
onto Franklin St. Extended. Turn
left on Camp Rd. and watch for the
sign indicating spring-tight power
fence systems. Those planning to
stay for lunch should call Taylor at
717-246-2029.
