About The Farmer Roundtables
The Farmer Roundtables are regional events that bring together farmers, landowners, conservation staff, and agronomists from across the Fox-Wolf Basin to share ideas and learn about soil health and conservation. Attendees hear from local and national soil health leaders. The Roundtables offer a chance for networking and open conversation, featuring a Farmer Panel and Lightning Talks where farmers can discuss their experiences and challenges, along with a Networking Happy Hour after the event. Join us in celebrating a decade of Farmer Roundtables together!
