Mountain High Farms has implemented a regenerative grazing approach, also referred to as Holistic Management, to bolster the health and growth of the animals in their care, as well as to protect the environment.
This innovative practice effectively addresses the pressing issues of climate change and environmental degradation, while also enhancing the productivity of the livestock population and contributing positively to the overall integrity of natural ecosystems.
Regenerative grazing is characterized by rotating livestock around a range of different areas, which helps to prevent overgrazing and allows plants the necessary time to regenerate. This, in turn, not only facilitates an increase in the diversity of plant and wildlife populations, but also serves to bolster the soil, which in turn can heighten the environment’s capacity to withstand devastating events such as floods, droughts, and erosion.
Regenerative grazing adopts a mindful approach that strengthens pastures and enhances their resilience to the effects of climate change. This method helps mitigate the harmful impacts commonly associated with uncontrolled grazing practices.
Furthermore, the process helps to sequester carbon, which can play a significant role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and ameliorating the negative impacts of climate change.
