PIGEON FALLS – Wisconsin's Discovery Farms program is introducing an online discussion network for farmers and crop consultants in Wisconsin and Minnesota.

Titled “The WaterWay Network,” with a subtitle of “Real Farmers, Real Solutions,” it is designed to focus on the use of science and local experiences to address practices relating to the conservation of natural resources such as soil and water.

Registered participants will be joined by “handpicked experts” every month, the organizers indicate. In order to foster open dialogue, the discussion forum will be conducted in a private setting.

There is no cost to register for this new network. To join it, call Erica Olson at 715-983-5668 or send an email to eaolson4@wisc.edu.
