Spring Field Day highlights importance of healthy soil

Northeast Wisconsin’s Door-Kewaunee Watershed is home to a network of farmers demonstrating innovative conservation practices to protect water quality in the Great Lakes.

In partnership with the United States Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection and Peninsula Pride Farms, the Door-Kewaunee Demonstration Farms Network (DK Demo Farms) is working to implement best management practices to reduce soil erosion and phosphorus runoff, increase soil organic matter and improve soil health.
