S1E31 Why Heritage Breeds Matter and How You Can Help w/guest Cathy R. Payne

This week is #HeritageBreedsWeek sponsored by the Livestock Conservancy.  On this episode, I am joined by Cathy R. Payne, author of the award winning book, Saving the Guinea Hogs: The Recovery of an American Homestead Breed to talk about heritage breeds, why they are important and what homesteaders can do to help conserve them.  Cathy's homesteading journey has been greatly influenced by heritage breeds (she'll be returning again next week to talk specifically about that journey) and she is very passionate about  preserving these breeds for future generations.Cathy's contact information and website are below:Cathy [email protected], Saving the Guinea Hogswww.amazon.com/author/cathyrpayneSilver Medal, 2019 Readers’ Favoritehttps://readersfavorite.com/2019-award-contest-winners.htm#saving-the-guinea-hogsFinalist, Best Books Award I hope you enjoy this podcast.
