Join us at Bent Gate Farms, a diversified livestock farm in Port Angeles! See rotational grazing in action and learn how to implement it on your farm.

Event highlights:

While Bent Gate Farms currently focus on cattle and pigs, historically they also raised sheep and poultry. Hear from farm owner Anna Swanberg about lessons learned over the years raising different species of animals and their choice to focus on pigs and cattle. This workshop will focus on why they rotationally graze their animals and what that setup looks like on their farm in practical terms.

Who should attend:

This workshop is for people who raise livestock on pasture- beginner to advanced, farmers, small-acreage owners, or those interested in someday having livestock.
