Building our permaculture homestead in Ontario, the watchwords are “simple” and “effective,” and the milking stanchion for our one dairy cow is no exception. Here we show you the low-tech setup we’ve built to keep Gertrude confined and comfortably noshing on organic, non-GMO grain while we clean her teats and draw off her nutrient-rich milk.
If you'd like to learn more about tending livestock and other permaculture-related topics and, be sure to enrol in the Verge Permaculture Academy and keep an eye out for new courses and webinars coming out throughout the year!
