OGRAIN Field Day: Organic Grain Soil Health, Testing, and an Introduction to Agroforestry with Otter Creek Organic Farm at Twin Crix

Join OGRAIN at Twin Crix Farm in Spring Green, WI, on Tuesday, August 19th, for a day of organic field walks and soil health talks. Gary Zimmer will share how he uses tests to make informed decisions to increase soil health. From soil tests to tissue tests to feed tests, he’ll discuss them all. Sandy Syburg will share results from an on-farm nitrogen and cover crop study led by Michael Fields Agriculture Institute. We’ll also hear an update on the work of Rye Revival. In the afternoon, we’ll discuss grain crop rotations and tour fields of corn, clover, and rye. We’ll end the day with an agroforestry field tour and introduction with Patrick Michaels. For a more in-depth dive into agroforestry, join the Savanna Institute on Wednesday, August 20th.
