The Farmer Veteran Coalition Ohio Chapter is hosting a Small Ruminant Workshop for veteran farmers. Farmers will learn what you need to know about selling small ruminant products, small ruminant nutritional needs, internal parasite and FAMACH training, and tour a goat and hay farm.
The program will be held at Wallace Family Boers farm located at 3574 County Rd 660, Gibsonburg, OH 43431 on Saturday, Sept. 21, 2024, from 8:30 a.m. – 4 p.m. The presenters include ODA Division of Meat Inspection Regional Veterinarian Dr. Sherrie Nuttle; OSU Agriculture and Natural Resource Extension Educator Brooks Warner; CSU Agriculture and Natural Resource Extension Educator Nellie Rowland, and Bill Wallace, farm owner and host.
The Farmer Veteran Coalition is about cultivating for the next generation of farmers/ ranchers and food leaders to strengthen communities around sustainable food systems.
The Small Ruminant Workshop is open to veteran farmers and beginning farmers interested in ruminant production, but space is limited to the first 30 registrants. Lunch will be provided.
