Recently, local farmers, Clean River Partners, and the Rice County SWCD, have cooperated to reduce the nitrate pollution in Rice Creek by 43% through cover cropping and sustainable farm management! We invite you to join us and learn more about this conservation effort, research around this project, and how you and your farm can get involved. This event will feature farmers, scientists, and representatives from around the sustainable farming community presenting their experiences on cover cropping in Minnesota, as well as a complimentary meal. Please contact Dane McKittrick at 630 777 9037, or dane@cleanriverpartners.org, with any questions.
