Ag WS: Creating & Maintaining Pasture Health
Creating and Maintaining Pasture Health for Grass-fed Buffalo and Elk, with presenters Dave and Sue Whittlesey of High Wire Ranch.
Pasture health is the heart of quality grass-fed operations supporting large ruminants. High Wire Ranch has been graizing buffalo and elk on several hundred acres on Redlands Mesa outside of Hotchkiss for over a decade. Their lush pastures are a sight to behold! Learn how to determine appropriate plant species, and their establishment in the high desert environment; signs of healthy pastures; challenges in maintaining pastures to support large ruminants while allowing for rotations of animals and pasture growth.
Dave and Sue Whittlesey have spoken at organizations throughout North America about the benefits of bison and elk ranching. They are always willing to take the time to answer your questions about their ranch, bison and elk.
High Wire Ranch was featured in the March/April 07 issue of Eating Well Magazine and in Sunset Magazine, the February 2008 issue, "Bringing Bison Back." America's Heartland, a national PBS television show, featured their ranch.
