The document discusses managing cows at Bella Farm using natural feeding, permaculture genetics, and seasonal management. It recommends dual purpose breeds like Brown Swiss that are suited for grazing and mineralizing pastures rather than being mineralized. Legumes are important for pasture quality and extending the grazing season. Calving in May allows dairy cows to graze seasonally while beef calve in August. Integrating laying hens, meat hogs, and a market garden makes use of surplus milk and manure to fertilize soils and crops without purchased inputs. The goal is to nurture the farm and the farmer's family through the seasons.
