Join an interactive online workshop series to help determine your readiness to farm
(ILLINOIS) Have you spent this past year dreaming about a different tomorrow? Does that dream have you
harvesting fruits and vegetables in multi-colored patchwork of fields? Or tending your flock of sheep while
practicing the art of fiber processing and dying? Or pasture-raising poultry with your trusty guardian dog by
your side? Or maybe you dream of converting a conventional row crop operation into a regeneratively
coupled livestock and grain system. Whatever your dream may be, Farm Dreams workshop will help you
assess your readiness and develop a plan to make your farm dream a reality!
The online Farm Dreams workshop series will be held over three consecutive Mondays in October (17, 24, and
31) from 6-8pm. Each session will include exercises and guided discussion to help aspiring farmers assess their
skills and resources, and provide direction for next steps in building a farm business. Participants will be
expected to complete some work independently prior to sessions to allow for the best use of our time online
together. Registration to attend all three sessions costs $30 and limited scholarships are available.
