SUMMARY:ASGA-CFAR Certified Solar Grazing Workshop - Georgia (May 27-29)
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss this unique opportunity to expand your knowledge and connect with experts in the field of regenerative agriculture. This unique\, three-day experience provides a deep dive into the principles and real-world application of solar grazing\, led by experts from White Oak Pastures alongside solar site owners and managers. \n\n\n\nParticipants will explore every aspect of solar grazing—from guided site tours to contract negotiation—and gain valuable insight into how this practice can be successfully integrated into diverse farm operations.Class size is limited to 16 participants\, ensuring a personalized and immersive learning experience.All ticket purchases include farm-to-table meals from the White Oak Pastures Farmer’s Table Restaurant throughout the session.CFAR is proud to serve as an ASGA Certified™ solar grazing training provider. Members of the American Solar Grazing Association (ASGA) who complete this workshop are eligible to earn a digital badge and be listed on the ASGA Solar Grazing Map. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\nContent for the three-day experience includes: \n\n\n\n\nField visits at two solar farms with differing designs to familiarize the participants with varying challenges/benefits of each design. \n\n\n\nHow to perform a rotational grazing field move with the White Oak Pastures sheep/herd.\n\n\n\nDetailed overview of capital expenditures and resources a solar grazer may need/encounter and the pros/cons with each type. \n\n\n\nPanel discussions with industry leaders in regenerative agriculture\, Owner/Operators of Solar facilities\, and Solar Grazers\n\n\n\nInsight into the bidding\, contracting\, and execution phases of solar grazing.\n\n\n\nDetailed historical outline of regenerative agriculture implementation at White Oak Pastures\n\n\n\nIntroduction to fundamental soil health principles\n\n\n\nDiscussions and demonstration of how sensitive solar equipment is protected from grazing animals. \n\n\n\nPreviously grazed and yet-to-be-grazed paddocks visible for comparison.\n\n\n\nDiscussion/demonstration of how sensitive solar equipment is protected from grazing animals.\n\n\n\nSite-specific discussion of how animals are delivered\, loaded\, and handled while on-site (Portable handling equipment\, Loading ramps/chutes Truck/trailer turnaround space)\n\n\n\nDemonstration/discussion of watering methods and equipment\n\n\n\nDiscussion of grazing goals (forage quality\, soil improvement\, forage height relative to solar panels\, etc.)\n\n\n\nFrom the perspective of solar site owners/managers\, what characteristics make for an ideal solar grazing vendor?\n\n\n\nWhat is a typical sheep stocking rate\, and how is it affected by seasonality\, precipitation\, and forage type?\n\n\n\nHow often is an increase or decrease in the stocking rate necessary? How dramatic are the swings?\n\n\n\nWhat animal classes work best for solar grazing (e.g.\, dry ewes\, weaned lambs)?\n\n\n\nA lot of Question-and-Answer discussion panels to make certain all participants had an opportunity to get their specific questions answered.\n\n\n\n\nRegistration link: https://thecfar.org/products/solar-grazing-may-2026
