Living on the Land – Class Series Teaches Land Stewardship\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Clark County, WA \u2013 Over the past 21 years, over 500 Clark County residents have graduated from the Living on the Land class series. The program brings in local experts to teach key stewardship principles to small acreage land caretakers.\u00a0 These experts give advice on pasture and livestock management, managing weeds, caring for your forest, improving wildlife habitat, soil health, stormwater management, well & septic maintenance, and more.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>The first step to good land management is understanding the whole system. This class series begins with advice on how to take appropriate inventories and create maps that help with goal planning.\u00a0 The class then dives into pasture and teaches about rotational grazing. Soil speakers share advice on soil testing and improving your soil health and fertility.\u00a0 The watershed class teaches about dealing with stormwater and protecting nearby water bodies. Terry Koper, Small Acreage Program Coordinator, states, \u201cThe variety of information these classes cover can help small acreage land caretakers dealing with a variety of land management issues.\u00a0 Not only do we teach stewardship practices, but also how to effectively manage your problem areas such as muddy pastures and weeds.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>The program is hosted by WSU Clark County Extension \u2013 Small Acreage Program and supported by Clark County Public Works Clean Water.
