Rotational grazing and organic management have helped Rocky Hollow Dairy prioritize the health of their herd and land. As the changing climate and fluctuating markets present new challenges, they’re finding creative ways to adapt and investing in climate-smart practices like silvopasture to grow long-term solutions.

Land, water, and other resources are often at a premium in cities, so urban farmers are well practiced at dialing in efficiencies and making the most of what’s available.

Whether you’re new to farming, running a farm, or somewhere in between—working side-by-side and sharing knowledge are keys to success. This is the vision that fuels our apprenticeship programs. And it’s what brought us to The Good Farm on a sunny fall day in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh valley.
