SUMMARY:PFI: Grazing for a Goal
DESCRIPTION:Karl Palmberg’s Larchwood\, Iowa\, farm has been in his family since 1938. But when he left for college\, the operation was mothballed and put into hibernation. After retiring from the military\, Karl returned to the farm and is building it back from scratch. He has been reevaluating the fundamentals and pivoting what he does to settle on what works. The goal is to produce healthy food for healthy people\, which for Karl starts in the soil. Come hear how Karl is grazing his cattle and using unique inputs like biochar to achieve his goals.

SUMMARY:PFI: Trying and Promoting Soil Health and Water Quality Practices in Northern Iowa
DESCRIPTION:Derek Young is a fourth-generation farmer who began farming in 1993 with his father and grandfather\, running a soybean\, corn and cattle operation. He strip-tills over half of his corn acres and no-tills most of his soybean acres while also maintaining conventional fields. He has covers flown on in the fall on over 1\,000 acres\, and drills rye on corn acres that are chopped for silage. \n  \nThis year\, Derek injected hog manure into his rye cover crop that’s going into corn\, and he’s hoping to cut back on nitrogen application in that field. Derek is also part of the Northwest Iowa Ag Stewardship Alliance\, a farmer-led group that promotes soil health and water quality in the region. At this field day\, learn about cover crops and reduced tillage\, hear a panel of farmers discuss their involvement with NIASA and more.

SUMMARY:PFI: Drainage Water Recycling and Double Cropping
DESCRIPTION:Mark and Melissa Schleisman and their family raise popcorn\, field corn\, soybeans\, rye\, wheat\, oats\, cattle and hogs at M&M Farms in Calhoun County\, Iowa. Soil and water conservation are a priority for the family. They use cover crops on all their fields\, grazing the covers whenever possible. Over the past five years\, they have worked with local organizations to install two wetlands that filter tile drainage\, which can then be used to irrigate fields. \n  \nThe Schleismans are excited to show their newest wetland project\, which will be used to irrigate popcorn in surrounding fields. To further explore soil-building practices that improve water infiltration\, they also double-crop wheat and soybeans. Come see how they are working toward their goal of using conservation practices while making cash flow.

SUMMARY:PFI: Overcoming Challenges and Finding Opportunities for Growth on an Organic Farm
DESCRIPTION:Bob and Sara Pearson grow organic corn\, soybeans and oats on their farm in Kossuth County\, Iowa. Sara started off with an organic vegetable farm in 2008 but gradually switched her focus to row crops as family rental acres became available. By 2015\, Bob and Sara decided to fully focus their energy on transitioning their acres to organic row crops\, choosing organic for its financial and environmental benefits. \nNow operating on 420 acres\, Sara and Bob have learned a great deal through years of organic transition and challenging weather years. Through it all\, their crops show resilience in the face of poor weather conditions and bad pest and weed years. Come see how they are working with nature to build soil\, retain water\, support beneficial insects and improve nutrient cycling.

SUMMARY:PFI: Targeted Grazing
DESCRIPTION:Prairies evolved with periodic disturbance from drought\, fire and grazing. Without these pulsed “setbacks\,” woody encroachment or grass threatens to diminish the robust diversity that’s the hallmark of the tallgrass prairie. Over the last few years\, Stennie Nelson has been working with Doug Chafa\, land manager and biologist with the Iowa DNR\, as part Doug’s effort to reintroduce grazing into local wildlife management areas. Stennie raises sheep for meat and wool and grazes the Turin Preserve Wildlife Area. \n  \nJoin Stennie\, Doug and the sheep for a prairie-pasture walk to discuss how managed grazing aims to meet both wildlife and prairie goals alongside wool and meat production. Bring your walking shoes! This field day will involve hiking up and down rough terrain.

SUMMARY:Extension Staff Natural Resources Professional Development Day - 2026
DESCRIPTION:This one-day event brings Extension professionals together from across Iowa — and across many program areas — to explore\, connect\, and learn. We’ll dig into natural resource issues\, discover new opportunities\, and build relationships — all while enjoying the great outdoors. This year’s program is on Thursday\, May 28\, 2026. \n  \nPlease join us the night before\, May 27\, for an informal gathering at West O’ Beer (503 Terrace Park Blvd\, Milford\, IA 51351). We will gather around 6:30pm for anyone who is interested in hearing from Joe Tiefenthaler who leads West O’s water quality and conservation efforts. West O’ will have live music from 7-9pm and food and beverages available for purchase. \n  \nThere will also be an optional tour of Brooks Golf Course (1201 Brooks Park Dr\, Okoboji\, IA 51355) at 7:15am on May 28. Owned by Conservation Foundation of Dickinson County\, Brooks is a certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Golf Course and leads a monthly “Birding on the Greens” tour. \n  \nOn May 28\, the morning program will start at the Iowa Lakeside Laboratory (1838 IA-86\, Milford\, IA 51351). Lakeside Lab is owned by the state of Iowa and its mission is twofold: 1) to provide science classes and research opportunities for university students\, and 2) to offer Outreach Programs and provide services through the state universities. \nLakeside’s 147-acre campus is located on scenic West Okoboji Lake\, on Little Millers Bay. The bay and adjacent natural areas are used as outdoor classrooms for Lakeside’s university courses and Outreach Programs. \n  \nWe’ll spend the morning learning about the history of the lab\, its work on water quality sampling\, and how it connects\, cares for and supports the natural areas that surround it. \nWe will also have a special session on county innovations on natural resources programming! What creative\, impactful and informative natural resources education are you offering? We’d love to highlight your work with a 5-minute lightening. If you’re interested in giving a short talk\, please reach out to the organizers (listed at the bottom of the page). \nWe will have lunch together\, then in the afternoon we will have two tour options. \n  \nTour #1: Explore Kettleson Hogsback\, a 2\,040 acre DNR-managed site that includes a never-been-plowed native prairie. It is one of the most bird-rich of any areas of Iowa with more than 270 species identified. Then\, we’ll visit the Wallace and Bowers Nature Area\, where the Iowa Natural Heritage Foundation maintains a diverse native prairie buffer and alfalfa buffer to protect Big Spirit Lake. The site also includes cover crops\, no-till and a wetlands restoration. \n  \nTour #2: Experience conservation in action on a guided tour that highlights both public stewardship and grassroots innovation. At the Dickinson County Conservation Board’s Nature Center\, enjoy a hike to an active osprey nest and hear from the director about the land they manage—and how Extension is partnering to support their work. Then visit Monarch Cove\, an inspiring example of urban conservation where concerned citizens transformed runoff problems into a privately funded community solution. \n  \nRegistration\nRegistration is open to all ISU Extension employees. Educators from county offices and campus across all four program areas are welcome and encouraged to attend this unique professional development event! \nPlease use this link to register by May 24th: https://go.iastate.edu/E2NZQZ \nFunding for the annual Natural Resources Professional Development Day is provided by the Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) Iowa mini-grants. This funding allows us to offer this event at no cost to participants.
