Weeds Are Up! Are Your Cows Ready to Eat Them?

*When you look out at those weeds, don't you wish there was another way to
deal with them? Aren't you tired of spraying them, or mowing them, and then
watching them return every spring?*
If you can't beat them, why not eat them?
[image: KathyFeedsTRex]I've been teaching cows to eat weeds for 7 years,
turning a problem into a nutritious forage. You can visit my web site to
see all the kinds of weeds that cows have eaten or that are
edible<http://cts.vresp.com/c/?LivestockforLandscap/a7dad24ad5/ec0c4535ae/1c7dfe37c9>
.
The process I developed makes it easy for cows to learn. *Now I've put
together some tools to make it easy for you to learn to train them too.** *
Coaching Program
When your schedule is already full, it can be challenging to try something
new, even if you know it would be good for you. *That's where the **coaching
program*<http://cts.vresp.com/c/?LivestockforLandscap/a7dad24ad5/ec0c4535ae/28d29ea760>
* comes in.*
You tell us about your operation, your schedule, your weeds, and your cows,
and we build you a personalized training plan to get you on your way with a
minimum of effort. We'll be there for you by phone as you train, so that
you'll know that everything is going as it should, or to make adjustments if
necessary.
