Moose Goose Farm Presents: Life with Livestock

June 28, 2025 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Free

Join us for an on-farm workshop by Jonathan Beauchane of Moose Goose Farm:

“I started building my farm in 2020 when I got my first chickens.  Two years later I added pigs; then goats in 2023.  My goal is to bring cows onto the farm in the next few years.  I have personally built all of the farm’s infrastructure from the ground up.  Winters can be tricky, but I have found ways to keep them fairly easy.  Trust me, daily work is not hard, it only takes me about 30 minutes each day.

In this workshop I will walk you through the daily chores of raising chickens, pigs and goats.  I will explain building and containment techniques, breeding, birthing, moving, milking, butchering, and overwintering of animals for an hour and a half.  The second half will be a hands on fence building experience for those who wish to stay.”

This is a free class made possible by the Finland Food Chain, North Shore AgroEcology Center, and a generous grant from the Laura Jane Musser Foundation.
