Kathryn teaches writing and studies disability rhetoric at James Madison University, and Neil is a neuro-educator and founder of N-SCP, an assessment and training company based on Narrative Medicine.</p> <p>Their farming system centers on using animals to balance land management needs with small-scale farming imperatives. They grow and sell native plants, and also breed award-winning dairy goats – both of which they sell through their website. Tour topics will cover native plant production, NRCS cost-share projects, management of conservation areas, and lessons learned in management of pastured poultry and small ruminants.</p> <p>This event will include a walking tour of their high tunnel, native plant nursery (both woody and herbaceous species), their conserved riparian buffer and wetland, an American Chestnut planting, an overview of their grazing paddocks, and an optional hands-on activity after lunch.</p> <p>This tour is supported in partnership with the Friends of the Rappahannock.</p> <p>This event is Free, but <strong>registration is required. </strong>(This tour has a limited capacity, so please be considerate; only register if you definitely intend to attend.)</p>America/New_York2026-06-01T09:00:00America/New_York2026-06-01T13:00:00en-USasd@asdevelop.org; https://events.humanitix.com/goat-silvopasture-at-adaptive-life-farm-in-madison-county-vaAdaptive Life Farm @ Address given after registration0https://www.culpeperswcd.org/event/small-ruminant-land-management-as-a-path-to-native-forest-restoration/freeai1ec-6609@www.culpeperswcd.org2026-05-15T20:37:03ZBoard MeetingAmerica/New_York2026-06-02T10:30:00America/New_York2026-06-02T12:00:00en-USStevie Ross; 540-825-8591; stevier@culpeperswcd.orgEvergro @ 13323 James Madison Hwy, Orange, VA 229600https://www.culpeperswcd.org/event/board-meeting-6/freeai1ec-6775@www.culpeperswcd.org2026-05-15T20:37:03ZRegenerative Practices and Permaculture at Home Part 2<p>Growing Abundant Gardens: Learn about permaculture methods for building a food forest, planning fruit tree guilds, and using water with swales and rainwater catchment systems.
