Producers/Growers

At the Watershed Agricultural Council, we also facilitate Producer Groups focused on dairy, beef and sheep/goat issues. These farmer-to-farmer gatherings meet periodically to discuss livestock topics of interest or to find solutions to on-farm hurdles. Group members collectively decide the meeting agenda and often take field trips to other farms or venues of interest like slaughterhouses, production facilities, and restaurants.
