Interview and pasture walk with Greg Judy
I recently took a road trip in my 1970 Chevelle from Kansas to Arkansas to attend a two-day regenerative grazing workshop led by Greg Judy. While there, I had the opportunity to interview Greg and record two pasture walks. In this first of two videos, I interview greg and then share the pasture walk from day one of the work shop. In the next video, I share the day two pasture walk. The two videos are long, but contain a wealth of wisdom and applicable information!

About the African Homestead:
In 2019, my family and I will relocate from Liberia's capital city, Monrovia, to the edge of a small village in the interior of the country. Before moving, we need to build an off grid homestead. The project includes construction of a house, garage/shop, schoolhouse, and training center, where we will lead training ranging from permaculture design to theology.
On this channel, we will cover many aspects of homesteading and self-sufficiency / self-reliance. Subjects will be a mix of vlogs and DIY projects, including primitive and modern construction, solar power, micro-hydro power (hopefully), selectively harvesting trees and milling lumber on-site for the construction of our house and other structures, Practicing Farming God's Way, natural farming, permaculture, and organic agriculture that includes kitchen gardens, food forests, composting, and more, all in a tropical environment.
We will also cover multiple types of livestock. Everything from raising chickens, rabbits, goats, pigs, and (maybe) cows, ranging from breeding, to milking, to butchering.
As part of self sufficiency, after growing our own food, we will share how to preserve it, from curing and smoking meats like bacon, to canning and fermenting veggies from the garden. Of course, we will be sharing some of our favorite recipes too!
On many of these endeavors, we will be learning as we go, which means we will make mistakes and have failures, all of which, we will share with you.
Thanks for joining us on the journey!

According to scripture, the Creator has given man stewardship over the land. Steward means caretaker or to watch over. Interesting!

This took place at Heifer Ranch, located in Perryville, Arkansas. It is the headquarters of Heifer USA. You can learn more about this great organization at www.heifer.org/usa/what-we-do/our-operations.html

Hi, Eric, What happened to the last building project you were trying to accomplish in Liberia. It seemed as though you were getting further with that one than you had with any of the others. Now in this video's description area, you are saying that when you relocate to Liberia, You will need to do the following, " Before moving, we need to build an off grid homestead. The project includes construction of a house, garage/shop, schoolhouse, and training center, where we will lead training ranging from permaculture design to theology." I was just wondering what happened to all that hard work you had put into that land. Did you encounter more problems with the local governing officials, or did you just leave it while you came back to the USA for this furlough? I hope you and the family are doing well. Kind regards. Liz.

@John Smith My philosophy..... dont really count ! Each farmer farms differently Some wake up at 5 am others dont get out of bed till noon. Grazing..... if you ever mowed lawn or cut a hay field and observed ......there is a few basic things to notice.....comparing grazing cows on a pasture. One.... if you drive ( representing cattle hoof traffic ) over one area constantly.... what happens ? Then spread cow manure all over the field. Expect a cow to eat beside her manure ? Would you eat your meal with poop beside your plate ? A cow will avoid that area for up to two years !! Basic common sense !!!!!

Round up is being marketed as a dessicant, an antibiotic, a weed killer, etc - sell, sell, sell. If it’s meant to destroy the guts of the insects, what is it doing to ours?

@@TrickleCreekFarm I'll tell you what it's doing, it creating antibiotic resistant bacteria. The fact that it's a mild antibiotic it's creating resistant bacteria in the soil as well.

@Templar Don't know exactly but im more concerned about how they use it. In the past herbicides were used once every few years when needed and the rest of the weed control was done by cultivation. Now it is sprayed many times per year and sometimes even used as a chemical drying agent. Its getting in the food supply to an amazing extent and people are being careless about it. I'm sure there is science somewhere tho based upon the lawsuits and several countries banning it.

Ive rotational grazed for 40 yrs.......milk cows... very important to have quality grass for milk cows ! Your too technical !!!! Just need to remember a few things ...... First.... vegetative stage.. grass should be no longer then 6 inches for highest quality ! Second.... manuring is a major issue ...after about June 10th mow everything for hay ...its manured...both grass and soil ! Third.....you can not grow grass of " quality " if its already mature .....remove what is over a foot tall ! Forth.......mowing promotes regrowth ! With my dairy cows.....I seldom fed grain or any type of protein.......there is no need if your growing quality grass ! Stock cows........ seem to be neglected in this case.... feeding the overgrown poor quality grass.......not good for milk production for the calves !
