about Janet McNally

Janet McNally is a former Lamb and Wool Instructor for Pine Techinical College, and spent the past 30 years raising sheep in a 100% grass based program. She increased the soil organic matter on her farm from .5% to 3.5% through grazing management and bale grazing alone without any soil amendments. Livestock Guard Dogs have been an important part of the grazing program as often the sheep have been grazing in remote predator rich areas. Janet is the owner of Tamarack Lamb and Wool in Hinckley.
