The University of Wisconsin-Madison Division of Extension is hosting a Soil Health Workshop on October 14 from 9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. for those farming, managing land, or working with landowners in the Big Eau Pleine/Fenwood Creek watershed.
The workshop, hosted by Bauman Dairy Farm near Edgar, will showcase how different management practices conserve soil and nutrients, and participants will see the results in real time with a rainfall simulator. Participants will also receive a free soil health test kit and learn how to use it to measure compaction, infiltration, and soil stability in their own fields.
Registration is free and lunch is included. Space is limited and priority will be given to those farming or managing land/working with landowners in and around the Big Eau Pleine/Fenwood Creek watershed.
