Progress, one practical job at a time

Building the Farm

A working farm is never finished. Ours currently involves a great deal of fence, water, forest work and asking whether there is a safer way to do it.

01

Rotational grazing

Dividing the acreage so horses, cattle and goats can move with purpose while forage has time to recover.

02

Forest health

Working in manageable five-acre sections on thinning, pruning, slash handling and future goat access.

03

Fencing that fits the animal

Permanent boundaries where they matter; portable electric systems where flexibility matters more.

04

Water across 60 acres

Planning reliable livestock water from the existing well without pretending that distance, elevation and drought are simple.

05

Pasture recovery

Looking at manure distribution, seeding, weed pressure and how grazing can support—not strip—the soil.

06

Emergency readiness

Well continuity, backup power, animal movement and supplies for the days when the ordinary plan disappears.

Why fire resilience matters here

The work is personal.

Wildfire devastated our community shortly before we began building this farm. That history is why forestry, grazing access, water and emergency planning are not side projects at Löshá Farms.

We are combining formal coursework, local assistance and what the land teaches us—without claiming that one treatment, one animal or one grant solves everything.
