Thank you Greenacres Michaela Farm for giving us a tour of the farm and for providing a delicious dinner! Our group had the opportunity to learn about how the livestock crew at Greenacres is implementing Temple Grandin’s farm design principles which emphasize animal welfare. Greenacres implements rotational grazing, and it was a fun sight to see the cattle and sheep excitedly moo-ve to new pasture!
