Living on the Land is a multi-week class series where small acreage land managers learn stewardship practices to help better care for their land.

Living on the Land participants learn about important topics pertaining to soil, water, plants and animals that guide sound stewardship decisions for small acreage management. Topics are presented by local and regional experts and include pasture management, controlling weeds, wildlife, soil health, well & septic maintenance, and many more. Graduates of this training come away with knowledge about how different aspects of their land interact, practices that enhance natural resources, and helpful strategies for improving their land stewardship by taking a whole farm approach.
