AgEmerge Podcast 098 with Meghan Filbert and Allysse Sorensen of Nofence
Meghan Filbert and Allysse Sorensen are both part of the US Nofence team and they’re working with growers to bring livestock back to the land. They have extensive experience in addressing barriers to grazing both perennial and annual forages. And, the more we learn about building soil health the more we know about how livestock can be a critical component in the system including not only soil benefits, but the income and community opportunities as well.
Meghan started working for Nofence in the summer of 2022 after working for Practical Farmers of Iowa and cooperative extension. She spent the last decade helping farmers address barriers to grazing both perennial and annual forages. She championed virtual fence technology for years before jumping at the opportunity to spearhead the adoption of this tech by directly working for Nofence. Meghan's goats are helping to reclaim an oak savanna in central Iowa using Nofence collars.
Allysse Sorensen joined Nofence in October 2022. Prior to that she was running her own goat grazing business. Managing goats off the farm on an average of six sites at a time in a 60-mile radius has a set of challenges. This led Sorensen to implement a variety of technology tools, including microchips and virtual fencing. Sorensen is also the owner of HireGoats.com, a directory of producers providing targeted grazing services.
