What happens here

This project outlines an effective and sustainable method for preparing a garden for winter using livestock, specifically pigs and goats. The animals serve as natural tilling agents, weed removers, and organic fertilizes, significantly reducing the need for manual labor and chemical inputs. The instructions cover setting up a movable electric fence system to manage animal movement, providing essential resources like water, and rotating the livestock through different garden sections to optimize soil preparation and health.
