Between the Lakes Demonstration Farm Network

We were bummed to cancel the Reichert planting green field day BUT we’re still getting together!

Join us for a Shop Talk at Chris and Jenny Reichert’s where they’ll walk through their approach to planting green, share what’s worked and what hasn’t, and answer your questions in a relaxed setting.

If you’ve been curious about planting green on your farm, this is a great chance to hear first-hand experiences. Bring a lawn chair and come hang out.

Between the Lakes Demo Farm Network is excited to partner with Sheboygan River Progressive Farmers to support this event!

🗓️June 15 at 6PM
📍N6972 County RD JM Sheboygan Falls, WI

👀 Be on the lookout!

We have a planting green pop-up field day in the works with Chris & Jenny Reichert of Reichert Land & Cattle!

Attendees will get to watch corn being planted into standing cereal rye, check planter setup and adjustments, and dig into discussion about what's working, what to watch for, and why it matters.

📌 More details coming soon - date and time TBD!

Ever wish you had more accurate weather and soil info for your area? That's where Wisconet - Wisconsin's Environmental mesonet - comes in.

Wisconet is a FREE network of weather and soil monitoring stations across WI - several of which are hosted by Demo farms! Each station collects updated info every five minutes, including things like air temp, rainfall, wind, soil temp and moisture, and more. Some stations even track ag-focused tools like evapotranspiration, cattle comfort index, and chill hours.

With nearly 80 station statewide, Wisconet helps capture our state's unique growing conditions and gives farmers another tool to support day-to-day decisions.
