Hello all! this is my first time here and im so glad to have found such a wonderful resource. My family and I just moved onto 7 acres about a month ago. The property is about 6 acres of
heavily wooded
trees. We are working with a friend (logger) to cut down and remove the stumps of most of the trees because our goal is to create pasture so we can have cows and goats. My main question is what is the best way to establish new pasture and how do i manage the existing weeds that will surely come up. We want to really nurture the soil and aren't planning to get any animals until next year. We currently have
chickens that i hope to let roam the
land once the trees are done being cleared to apply some manure. We won't be cutting all the trees down, we will be leaving a good amount of them behind to create more of a silvopasture.
