Maximizing the use of available land and exploring unconventional grazing opportunities can help both new and experienced sheep producers expand their operations. Designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of grazing management for sheep and goats, the Targeted Grazing Course focuses on vegetation control, land sustainability, animal welfare, and business planning. The final module includes detailed Canadian case studies on grazing under solar panels, in cut blocks, in forested and urban areas, and to control unwanted vegetation.
Offered online, the course costs $250 and takes 10-15 hours to complete. Support is provided by Marisa Schuebel, a Lakeland College instructor and urban grazier of goats, and online check in points are scheduled for discussion and idea sharing. The course is offered twice each year, September to December and January to April. Producers are encouraged to register early within these periods to ensure they do not miss any online sessions.
Next course runs September 15 to December 17, 2025.
