Description

Are you a Wisconsin woman farmer or landowner from Barron, Dunn, Polk or nearby counties?  Are you interested in learning more about implementing conservation practices on your land? This workshop is part of a new project that brings together women who share a passion for land stewardship to network, discover new resources, and together build healthy soil for future generations.  Whether you are beginning your conservation journey or have been practicing conservation for years, we extend a warm invitation. The workshop is live, and you will have the opportunity to interact and ask questions. The workshop will not be recorded.

We are trying to create connections in a tri-county area, but you are welcome to attend even if you are from outside of the region. The content is designed for landowners, but all women with a curiosity about land stewardship are welcome, including beginning farmers looking for land. 

Join this virtual event and:

• Meet other women passionate about conservation
• Learn about building healthy soil
• Collaboratively steward our land for future generations
• Connect with NRCS staff and resources

Wisconsin Women in Conservation (WiWiC) is an innovative collaboration between four leading land stewardship organizations in the state -- the Michael Fields Agricultural Institute, Wisconsin Farmers Union, Renewing the Countryside and the Midwest Organic and Sustainable Education Service (MOSES) --- with support from the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS).

This free virtual workshop kicks off a three-year initiative that will also include on-farm workshops, field days, mentoring opportunities and resource connections. For more information contact NorthWest Regional Coordinator Jennifer Nelson at jennifer@mosesorganic.org or 952-451-5393.
