NIGHT OWL FARM |
| On an 84 acre farm set on Salt Spring Island in the Fulford Valley, these Belted Galloway cattle are perfect as a free range organic breed. “As a free-range organic breed, they are perfect,” says Johnston. “They can live outside all year, they look after themselves and they stay put. Jerseys and Angus are fence breakers. Galloways prefer to stay home. They thrive on poor quality forage, graze all summer and feed on grass and haylage in the winter. Our farm is 84 acres so we have plenty of pasture – this year I cut haylage at Cusheon Lake Farm as our wet spring prevented a first cut of hay. I harvested 40 tons from four acres, enough feed for four to five months, all with organic status.” |
