Farmers across the Fox-Wolf Basin are choosing to invest in soil health equipment like no-till drills and low-disturbance manure injectors that reduce nutrient and sediment loss. That choice benefits everyone downstream, from the fish in the river to the kayaker on the lake to the water coming out of your tap.

To help make that choice more affordable, Fox-Wolf launched a $250,000 fund that reimburses farmers 50% of their equipment purchase price, up to $30,000.
Whether you're out on the water or working the land, we're all part of the same basin, and every choice counts!
