Dairy Grazing Apprenticeship: National Gathering

Current and prospective master graziers and apprentices are invited to this annual gathering of the national Dairy Grazing Apprenticeship community.

The evening will begin with a tour of Hameau Farm, operated by Master Grazier Gay Rodgers and Apprentice Jessica Matthews. Hameau Farm is home to a herd of registered Ayrshire cows, and has recently ventured into producing and direct-marketing raw milk. 

After the tour, PASA’s Education Director Dr. Franklin Egan will speak about the organization’s research with grazing dairy farms in Pennsylvania, and you’ll connect with current and prospective Dairy Grazing Apprenticeship participants over a catered dinner.
