IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Exactly What Is Calf Sharing? Actually, it would be much more intuitive to call it cow sharing because that’s exactly what you do. You share the cow with the calf. You get milk and he gets milk. {We have friends who have done this with their goats, but for today we’ll be talking about a family milk cow} It’s also referred to as milk sharing or share milking. I’ll be honest, I grew up on a little farm and the only time that I ever remember not having some kind of home dairy animal is when they were for whatever reason all dry at the same time. At one point we even milked goats and a cow at the same time. That was a lot of milk! Anyway, the point of saying all that is, that the whole calf sharing thing is all I’ve ever known when it comes to a milk cow. I didn’t know it was a “thing” or that some people don’t do it. I actually didn’t even know that it was called calf sharing until recently. That was just how you did it in my mind. -thislovelylittlefarmhouse.com

Permaculture From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Permaculture is an approach to land management and settlement design that adopts arrangements observed in flourishing natural ecosystems. It includes a set of design principles derived using whole systems thinking. It applies these principles in fields such as regenerative agriculture, town planning, rewilding, and community resilience. Permaculture originally came from "permanent agriculture",[1] but was later adjusted to mean "permanent culture", incorporating social aspects. The term was coined by Bill Mollison and David Holmgren in 1978, who formulated the concept in opposition to Western industrialized methods and in congruence with Indigenous or traditional knowledge.[2][3][4] Permaculture has many branches including ecological design, ecological engineering, regenerative design, environmental design, and construction. It also includes integrated water resources management, sustainable architecture, and regenerative and self-maintained habitat and agricultural systems modeled from natural ecosystems.[5][6] It shares many practices with agroforestry and agroecology, emphasizing their social, cultural, and economic contexts. Permaculture has been implemented and gained widespread visibility throughout the world as an agricultural and architectural design system and as a guiding life principle or philosophy. Traditional and indigenous practices are highly valued in permaculture because they have been developed in perpetual dialogue with specific climate and soil conditions.[2][7][8] In turn, the rise of permaculture has revalidated Indigenous knowledge in circles where it was previously devalued.[9] Permaculture uses creative design processes based on whole-systems thinking, considering all materials and energies in flow that affect or are affected by proposed changes. In practical terms it means that before, for example, modifying overland water flow, one fully considers both upstream and downstream effects in the short and long terms. Or, when looking at a "problem", such as brushy vegetation, one considers how removing or altering it will impact soil and wildlife, and how these interacting forces would evolve over time and space. When building a house, one takes into consideration breaking down the house.
