On this episode of Living Permaculture, Vanessa Harmony invites guest Glenn Elzinga of Alderspring Ranch in May, Idaho to explore the commonalities of regenerative ranching and permaculture design. Meat produced regeneratively adheres to permaculture design’s ethics of people care, earth care, and fair share to nourish humans, nourish the earth, and nourish ecosystems and communities for future generations. In Part I of this discussion, they discuss principles of observing and interacting, obtaining multiple yields, and selective grazing versus targeted grazing. Tune into Living Permaculture on KDNK.org the third Monday of each month at 4pm.
