It’s not much yet, but I’m still excited to see these bright, Spring green patches of grass coming up in a pasture that was recently covered with Eastern Red Cedar seedlings (Juniperus virginiana) and Broomsedge Bluestem (Andropogon virginicus).
This is the result after only a single rotational grazing period with our sheep followed immediately with my small riding mower to knock down the clumps of Broomsedge.
We did no reseeding, liming, or calcium application… all of which would be helpful and would speed up the recovery/regeneration process.
It’s these little encouragements that confirm we are on the right track.
