Soil Health Summer Tour with Joel Williams

Join us for the Soil Health Summer Tour with Joel Williams, an engaging day of learning focused on building healthier soils and more resilient forage systems.

Internationally recognized soil health educator Joel Williams will share practical strategies for improving soil health, increasing drought resilience and turning low-productivity acres into profitable forage systems suited to prairie conditions.
