In this episode Jared Luhman speaks with Lyndsey and Chris from Shady Creek Lamb Co., who share their innovative approach to sheep farming through solar grazing. They discuss their backgrounds in agriculture, the challenges of transitioning from cattle to sheep, and the importance of water management and infrastructure in their operations. The couple emphasizes the significance of public relations in modern farming and how they have adapted to the protocols of working with solar companies. The conversation also delves into the benefits of grazing under solar panels and reflections on growth and the concept of 'enough' in farming. The discussion concludes with thoughts on land management and investment strategies.
