Granite State Graziers

WELCOME


Granite State Graziers supports New Hampshire residents raising livestock and seeking to implement pasture management systems that improve soil health and water quality. We act as a clearinghouse for information; conducting educational programs and events, and providing online resources.

We are a part of the New England Grazing Network (NEGN), a collective of businesses and organizations working toward the shared goal of bringing regenerative grazing resources to the Northeast. For more information, please visit https://www.negrazingnetwork.com/.


2-Minute Producer Survey: A Value-Added Market for Regeneratively-Raised Leather

  • Do you practice regenerative cattle grazing in the Northeastern US (as defined by the USDA)?
  • Are you interested in sending some cattle hides to a value-added market?


If your answer to both of these questions is YES, the Northeast Grass-Fed Beef Initiative (NGBI) invites you to complete this 2-minute survey.

NGBI is working with partners to establish processes to sort, store, and transport leather hides from regeneratively-raised cattle to companies that make leather products and care about responsible sourcing.

These processes will prevent leather hides from going to waste, avoid disposal fees charged to producers, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions caused by hide disposal.

The project will be piloted in Southeastern New England with hopes of expansion in future years. In alignment with NGBI's mission, this project will focus on hides from regeneratively-raised cattle.
