Farmers and agricultural researchers from around the country will
converge on the Research Center on July 22 to learn the latest in
regenerative farming techniques at Family and Farm Independence Day.
Held from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., the day will include workshops given by
progressive farmers such as Joel Salatin, one of America's most
innovative beef and poultry graziers, and Dick and Sharon Thompson of
Boone, Iowa, who made sustainable farming and on-farm research
famous.
Workshop topics include how to choose and use cover crops, how to
market organic grains, how to make and apply compost, intensive
grazing, and more.
Attendance for the day is $55 per person, which includes four
workshops and a tour of the Research Center. There will also be a
variety of trade exhibits, equipment demonstrations and Q&A sessions
with Research Center staff.
