Good morning, please mark your calendars and join us next week, Friday Nov 1st from 11-1pm!

We have an informal get-together planned to look at our ariel/drone interseeding attempts (no rain, did it grow?) along with a large variety of corn, watershed group updates, and a discussion with UW-Madison Professor, Jeff Hadachek. It does not look like rain will be a factor, but if so we will update the location here. Please share this event, and invite your neighbors for lunch!
