When it comes to caring for the land we live on (or our horses live one), or even growing hay or produce, a lot of times we may utilize methods that can harm other species without even thinking about it. But could we be harming our horses while doing this? This is something I worried about after reading the book “Restoring Eden” by Elizabeth Hilborn.
Dr. Elizabeth Hilborn and I chat about her personal experience with the devastation she saw from agricultural run off into her farm, something that has taken years to slowly recover from.
You can hear the entire conversation on any podcast app under “The Humble Hoof,” or directly at this link.
You can find Dr. Hilborn’s book on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/Restoring-Eden-Unearthing-Agribusiness-Community/dp/1641609389
