COVERS AND COMPOST
June 11, 2025, from 1-3 p.m.
The Steffens are looking for more natural ways to raise livestock and crops. Cattle graze polyculture cover crops in the fields and as winter feed. Baled cover crops also serve as bedding in the hoop barn for hogs. They use a combination of composting methods and compost teas to support crop needs.
Systems management and how the pieces work together will be the focus for this event. Attendees will move through stations to discuss grazing cover crops, compost methods, and evaluate different compost under microscopes. No cost to attend. RSVP appreciated.
