This episode of Voices from the Field continues ATTRA’s podcast series “She’s Raising Sheep.” In it, Minnesota shepherd Janet McNally shares her story with NCAT Regenerative Livestock Specialist Linda Poole.  Janet has conquered some of the biggest challenges a shepherd might face – drought, tornados, wildfires, Arctic-class winters, wolves, parasites, and more. Janet’s tales, which are in turn harrowing, enlightening, and entertaining, are chock-full of information and inspiration for pasture-based graziers.  ATTRA Resources:  Livestock and Pasture She’s Raising Sheep: Indiana’s Denice Rackley She’s Raising Sheep: New Zealand Shepherd Bev Towbridge She’s Raising Sheep: Montana Shepherd Becky Weed She’s Raising Sheep: California Shepherd Lani Estill  Outside Resources:  Tamarack Lamb and Wool Graze Grassfed Exchange 2014 – Janet McNally   Contact Linda Poole via email at lindap@ncat.org. Please complete a brief survey to let us know your thoughts about the content of this podcast. You can get in touch with NC
