Steps towards the reimagining of the farm & use of land.

Steps in the right direction.

Behind the scenes my mother and I continue with the farmland vision, we have established relationships with our local NRCS offices - Brown & Outagamie County, and have made new allies and partners along our journey.

We are learning much about conservation restorations and have our first tentative hand drawing of a plan for the farm after a productive and lively meeting with both NRCS offices over tea at our home.

School.

Sustainable Agriculture coursework at NWTC brings a sense of excitement, accomplishment, and a genuine interest in all things homesteading, farming, organic, sustainable, and conservation. I delve into my studies and begin to plan to complete my Associate Degree. My paths of choice - Sustainable Agriculture Certificate and Business Event Management, with the hope and dream to run the family farm.

Coursework I proudly completed for the Spring Semester include, Organic Livestock Practices, Organic Gardening, Aquaponics, Marketing Principals, Marketing Presentations, Professional Sales and Long-term Partnerships, Customer Service, and Supervisory Personal Skills.
