SUMMARY:Talbot River Healthy Environment Initiative Farm Tour with Danielle Marcoux-Hunter
DESCRIPTION:Please RSVP here by August 19th\, 2023 \n\n\n\nWhen: Friday\, August 25th from 9:00 am to 2:30 pm (Catered packed lunch will be served) \n\n\n\nWhere: Charter bus will board at Ken Reid Conservation Area (277 Kenrei Rd Lindsay) – meet at 8:45 am \n\n\n\nCost: Free \n\n\n\nWhat: This farm tour is intended to celebrate the important work farmers are doing to improve water quality through the implementation of agricultural Best Management Practices (BMPs) in Kawartha Lakes. Attendees will visit 4 demonstration farms to learn from local farmers and conservation staff about diverse farm projects that aim to improve water quality in the Talbot River subwatershed\, and ultimately downstream in Lake Simcoe.  \n\n\n\nThe Talbot River Healthy Environment Initiative is a Kawartha Conservation project to improve water quality throughout the Upper Talbot River subwatershed. By partnering with local farmers\, Kawartha Conservation implemented BMPs that protect and enhance riparian areas – the transitional areas between water surfaces and uplands. The BMPs we will be seeing in this tour include manure storage\, livestock exclusion fencing\, solar powered alternated watering systems\, vegetative buffers and windrows.

SUMMARY:#Let's Talk Soil Online: Soil Health in the Prairies
DESCRIPTION:Soil health and conservation practices in the Prairies can provide some food for thought to our Ontario practices and strategies. Stuart Lawrence\, a farmer from Rosetown\, SK\, has been improving and understanding his land’s soil health for 4 decades. He already utilizes No Till\, Precision Agriculture\, GPS\, a diverse crop rotation\, and dabbled with cover crops and intercropping\, among other practices.  \n\n\n\n***POSTPONED*** Rescheduling for later in the season.\n\n\n\nStuart utilizes technology to make data based decisions to help reduce costs and environmental impact. The importance of the soil has been known for decades\, but there is still much to be learned and understood; Stuart and his family have been committed to conserving their soil resources as they know it’s importance in the now and in the future.
