Michigan Agriculture Advancement’s 9th Annual Underground Innovations meeting will take place at the Bavarian Inn Lodge in Frankenmuth, MI. The conference features a great line up of speakers on topics such as cover crops, grazing, regen certification, food-grade grains, and new crop markets. Speakers will share how they’ve come to adopt new practices on their farms, how they’ve gotten to this point, and where they are looking to go in the future. Network with producers from across Michigan and beyond to help take ideas home to implement on your own operations. Full agenda coming soon!
