This week our special guest will be Alison Martin from The Livestock Conservancy to talk about "Preserving Rare Breeds of Livestock”. The mission of the Livestock Conservancy is to protect America’s endangered livestock and poultry breeds from extinction. Many of America’s once-common farm animals face extinction if we do not take action now. Rare farm animals represent an irreplaceable piece of livestock diversity and offer incredible variety that may be needed for future farms; robust health, mothering instincts, foraging, and the ability to thrive in a changing climate. These farm animals are a vital part of ensuring food security now and for the future. Alison Martin, program director of the Conservancy, will share with us the work this organization does to prevent extinctions, expand populations, educate beginning farmers, and help breeders establish new markets for their products.
