Wendy Lombardi was born and raised in Nebraska, and her experience with agriculture and livestock management began at a very early age. She worked at various livestock facilities into her mid twenties, and earned a degree in Equine Science. After a stint in the Army during Desert Storm, Wendy earned a master's degree in Wellness and developed the US Army's Pregnant Soldier Wellness Program, which is still used by the US military today. Post-service, she homeschooled her three children on a forty-acre homestead in the Ozarks of Missouri, teaching them (and others too!) how to live in a modern world while minding the health of our planet. Wendy is currently Director of Cultivating Veterans, which assists farming veterans in forming secure food cooperatives to distribute sustainably-grown foods from farm to table. She hosts veteran workshops, FFA student activities, WWOOF and Veterans volunteers, and does outreach and presentations at seminars and other community gatherings.

Reviews for Natural Parasite Control for Livestock: Pasture Management, Chemical-Free Deworming, Growing Antiparasitics, and More

I am recommending this handy guide to all my friends with livestock. This is a much needed resource for homesteaders and small producers. Parasites are a nemesis for many of us. In these pages, Wendy Lombardi shares her valuable knowledge of plants, parasites, and methods of control using available plants and herbs. I will be keeping my copy for years to come. --Janet Garman, author of Good Living Guide to Keeping Sheep and Other Fiber Animals, 50 Do-It-Yourself Projects for Keeping Chickens, and 50 Do-It-Yourself Projects for Keeping Goats
