The Wisconsin Counties Association, Wisconsin Towns Association, Pheasants Forever and the Professional Dairy Producers of Wisconsin are partnering up once again this summer to sponsor on-farm Agriculture Community Engagement Twilight Meetings. The events, conducted in different parts of the state, each include a tour of the hosting dairy followed by a relaxed discussion and ice cream. The discussion will provide a platform for open communication about issues important to our communities.
Organizers say the forums are an open invitation to the state's community leaders, elected officials, conservation officials, dairy and livestock producers and all citizens interested in learning from each other so Wisconsin communities can be vibrant and green.
This year's host farms include Wall-Stone Holsteins, DeSoto (August 29); Bragger Family Dairy, Independence (August 30); JTP Farms, Dorchester (August 31); and McFarlandale Dairy, Watertown (September 1).
Each of the meetings begin at 6:00 p.m. with a farm tour, followed by a guest speaker and question-and-answer time. They are free of charge.
