Welcome to the inaugural episode of the Grazing Grass Podcast! Join me, Cal Hardage, as I share my journey into the world of grass farming and explain the motivation behind starting this podcast. As an avid podcast listener, I noticed a gap in content specifically focused on grass farming, and I decided to create a platform dedicated to helping farmers become better grass farmers. In this episode, I outline the show's format, where we plan to interview a different grass farmer each week to learn about their operations, challenges, and successes. I also provide some background about myself, from growing up on a beef cattle and dairy farm to my current role in education and technology while managing a farm with Kiko goats, Katahdin hair sheep, and Limousin cows.
Listen in as I discuss my approach to grass farming, including rotational grazing and forage management, and introduce the famous four-question segment inspired by the BiggerPockets podcast. I share some of my favorite resources, such as "No Risk Ranching" and "Comeback Farms" by Greg Judy, and talk about the invaluable tools on my farm like the T-post puller and electric fence remote. Be sure to visit GrazingGrass.com for community forums and HedgeappleAcres.com to learn more about our farm and Kiko goats. I invite fellow grass farmers to join this exciting journey, share their experiences, and support the show through reviews and merchandise. Let's work together to become better grass farmers and build a thriving community!

What is Grazing Grass Podcast sharing Regenerative Ag Stories?
The Grazing Grass Podcast features insights and stories of regenerative farming, specifically emphasizing grass-based livestock management. Our mission is to foster a community where grass farmers can share knowledge and experiences with one another. We delve into their transition to these practices, explore the ins and outs of their operations, and then move into the "Over Grazing" segment, which addresses specific challenges and learning opportunities. The episode rounds off with the "Famous Four" questions, designed to extract valuable wisdom and advice. Join us to gain practical tips and inspiration from the pioneers of regenerative grass farming.
This is the podcast for you if you are trying to answer: What are regenerative farm practices? How to be grassfed? How do I graze other species of livestock? What's are ways to improve pasture and lower costs? What to sell direct to the consumer?
