The pastures have multiple species of native browse and cover including Ephedra, Littleleaf Sumac, Wolfberry, Skunkbush Sumac, Elbowbush, Hackberry, Mesquite and Cedar trees. A portion of these pastures have some of highest densities of Littleleaf Sumac and Ephedra that I have seen, and are great browse plants for natural protein!
