PaddockTrac Field Day and Pasture Chat
August 31, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am
Join us at Seven Stars Farm to learn more about an innovative new technology that has potential to improve forage pasture management.
Seven Stars Farm in Chester County is piloting a forage pasture prediction tool, PaddockTrac, that can help graziers manage pastures for ideal soil and animal health. Come see how this technology works, ask questions, and share your farming experiences, challenges, and goals with our Dairy Grazing Apprenticeship mentors and apprentices.
Are you interested in joining Dairy Grazing Apprenticeship or are a farmer curious about Pasa’s new Climate-Smart Farming & Marketing Program that can fund the implementation of climate-smart practices on your farm? Join us here to connect and learn more!
About the farm: Operating since 1987, Seven Stars Farm is a 420-acre certified Biodynamic dairy farm located in northern Chester County, PA. The farm uses the milk from its Jersey herd to produce Seven Stars Organic Yogurt. Its yogurt is sold via natural foods distributors throughout the eastern United States.
Please note: This event is designed for individuals involved in dairy grazing, advanced pasture management, or interested in Dairy Grazing Apprenticeship. Not sure if this event is for you? Please reach out to Lucas Waybright at lucas@pasafarming.org for more information.
