Farm Transitions Planning Course

If you are (or if you know someone who is) interested in developing future steps for your farm, or planning for the next generation of farmers on your land, or getting on the same page as a spouse/partner, or don’t know where to start the planning process, this Land Stewardship Project Farm Transition Planning Course is for you.
From a past participant: “DO IT!! It’s a must, very good foundational level information. I gained access to vital resources I otherwise would not have had access to. Peer group setting helped me build the confidence needed to move forward”

WHEN: Tuesdays from January 28th to March 18th (no class on March 11th)
TIME: 5:30 p.m.-8 p.m.
WHERE: Online
WHAT: The focus will be on values and vision, financial and legal considerations, options for farm transitions, resources to guide the planning process, and communication tools.
COST: $250/farm family

Another participant shared: "This course saved me thousands of dollars by providing information that helped me understand what I needed to do myself and what I needed to pay professionals to do."

Resource professionals, experienced landowners and LSP staff will present at and guide this course.

“As a landowner, you have the power to determine the legacy of your land — that decision is the most important decision you can make,” said Bill McMillin, a retired southeastern Minnesota farmer who, with his wife Bonnie, (pictured above), transitioned the family farm to a non-related beginning farmer-neighbor.
