SUMMARY:Electric Fencing Masterclass - Lillooet
DESCRIPTION:On March 14 and 15\, join us at Spray Creek Ranch in Lillooet for an immersive advanced electric fencing workshop tailored to producers who already understand the fundamentals and are ready to take their systems to the next level. Spray Creek Ranch is a certified organic operation managing poultry\, sheep\, pigs\, cattle\, and horses within a dynamic rotational grazing system\, making it an ideal real-world classroom for applied fence design. \nDuring the half-day classroom session\, we will explore high-tensile perimeter construction\, brace systems\, advanced grounding strategies\, load calculation\, long-distance power transmission\, predator offsets\, and designing multi-paddock systems that reduce labour while improving performance. We will also examine how fencing supports rotational grazing\, wildlife management\, winter resilience\, and long-term infrastructure planning. \nThe full hands-on day will focus on demonstrations and building and testing systems in the field. We will construct corner and brace assemblies\, tension and tie high-tensile wire\, install grounding systems\, diagnose faults\, and evaluate power under vegetation and load pressure. This workshop is designed to help producers engineer fencing systems that are durable\, scalable\, and capable of performing under real operational stress. \nIt may be helpful for participants to review our series of instructional electric fencing videos available on YouTube. \nLearn more and register here: https://www.smallscalemeat.ca/fencing-masterclass \nThis class is funded by the Climate Agri-Solutions Fund. Funding for the Climate Agri-Solutions Fund has been provided by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada through the Agricultural Climate Solutions – On-Farm Climate Action Fund.
