Our Cattle: The Environment 
The environment is intensively managed at Walnut Hollow Ranch with the assistance of the Natural Resource Conservation Service. We implement
many environmental quality practices including rotational grazing, creek and stream-bank protection, stabilizing the soils from erosion, and
ecological manure management.Walnut Hollow Ranch has a commitment and a passion for conservation and preservation of farmland. We are proud of the stewardship of our land. 
Walnut Hollow Ranch practices sustainable pasture management. Pastures are generally limed to balance the soils and seeded annually, keeping
the grass and legume stands in good cover. The ranch has an abundance of dung beetles. These beneficial insects help enrich the soils naturally.
In addition, wild turkeys comb the pastures, assisting pasture health and nutrient recycling.Conservation easement zones and wildlife habitat areas are managed on the farm. The woodlands are addressed with a Woodland Management Plan. The farm is listed as a "Voluntary Agriculture District" in Clay County, NC. |
