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. This is the second of a two part series. You can find the first video here: • Interview and Pasture ...
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!

What a blessing this man is. The knowledge is priceless. There were some people who were talking among themselves when Greg was talking and that was SO rude. Otherwise another excellent session with Greg Judy.

By Marlboro Man. In last Saturday’s episode of Ree’s cooking show, I took the four boys (our boys and their two friends) to cut down cedar trees on the ranch. Cedar trees are considered a scourge on the prairie. They spread rapidly and easily and can thrive in almost any environment. It doesn’t matter what soil type you have-Type 1, Type 2, sandy, loamy or even rock-if a cedar tree decides to grow there, it will thrive. Agriculture is a long-term business proposition. Every rancher or farmer I know is in the business of managing their land for the long term. We make our living off the land so we have to manage that land to make it the most productive it can be for the long term, long term being (hopefully) the rest of our lives…and even after. Cedar trees, which can take over your property in a matter of five to fifteen years, are viewed as a constant threat to the long-term production of any ranch or farm. Today (and on the show) the cedars look like harmless little trees. But left unchecked, those little trees will eventually produce thousands of seeds and spread across the property like wildfire. As they get bigger and more populous, they will eventually shade out the grassland and crowd out the better varieties of trees. I’ve seen many pastures where cedars have completely taken over an area, reducing the grazing capacity by seventy to eighty percent. Now, that would be a more extreme case, and it would take probably fifteen years or more of neglect for the same to happen here. But in a few years-maybe fifty or so-when I see my grandfather and great-grandfather in Heaven, they’ll definitely kick my butt if I let it happen on my watch. In more populated areas, cedar trees can also pose a great fire hazard since they burn so quickly and so hot. In more isolated areas like ours, fire can actually be a useful tool in controlling the spread of cedars. Periodic burning of pastureland will not only eliminate existing cedars, it will also eliminate the seeds dropped by those trees. If you have country that’s harder to burn, the best way is to handle cedars is to cut them down. As long as you cut them below the very bottom branch, the tree should not grow back. This is really easy to do with just a good pair of tree trimmers/pruners when the trees are small. However, as they get larger I like to use a good hand saw. It doesn’t take long to cut through a tree and it’s actually pretty good exercise. Cedar trees also absorb a great deal of water, which robs the land and water sources of their water supply. In a normal year, this is not as much of a problem. But during dry years it can really hinder grass production, which is ultimately what ranching is all about. Another reason to keep cedars away is cosmetic. I grew up in the house where Ree and I live now. We have to drive down five mile of dirt road through rolling prairie, and I’ve always loved the look of it. It’s probably a result of many years of conditioning by my father and grandfather and from many years of cutting down cedars on various parts of the ranch when I was a kid…but I can’t help it. To me, cedar trees are an eyesore-a blight on an otherwise beautiful landscape. The only good thing I can say about cedars is that they do burn well, and when the kids and I get to burn a pile of cedars we’ve cut down, it always makes for a nice bonfire.

Well, I think cedar trees are beautiful. They're also quite valuable. Naturally, if you have a pasture with livestock you'll want to keep them from spreading all over it, but the wood is fragrant and repels some insects, they give cows shade on hot days, they promote biodiversity, and burning pastures to control them pollutes the air and contributes to global warming. If you want to burn cedar, at least cut it into firewood and you can sell it, right? To make any farm work, it seems one of the main messages I've gotten from all these videos I've been watching is to not let anything that you can make a profit from on your farm go unnoticed and unexploited. A lot of regenerative farmers make furniture out of their cedar wood and sell their products, things like picnic tables, for example. What a waste to just burn it.
