Shauna Throesch, Cindy Robinett, and Lillie
POCAHONTAS, AR. Sept. 29 On September 10th, BRTC’s Agriculture Instructor, Shauna Throesch, invited Mrs. Cindy Robinett to speak to her Seminars in Agriculture class.
Robinett spoke to the class about her experiences in breeding and raising registered Nigerian Dwarf goats, and she brought a four-legged friend, Lillie, to show the class. Specifically, Robinett spoke about breeding to produce desired genetic traits, care and maintenance, and hobby vs. business. Of course, interacting with Lillie was the highlight of the class.
Instructor Throesch expressed, “Agriculture is awesome, but it’s even better when it’s local.”
