LSP is no longer active on X, formerly known as Twitter, as it has become less of a community and more a source of misinformation. The good news is you can keep up to-date with the Land Stewardship Project on BlueSky! Give us a follow --> https://t.co/wNm9o19502

LSP member & "Dodge County, Inc." author Sonja Trom Eayrs in @CivilEats : "The factory farm fights have been so divisive, pitting neighbor against neighbor. Eventually, we will learn that we need one another."

LSP Blog: "It’s become clear that if we are successful in making [oats] a key part of our rotation, it could serve as a three-legged stool that supports economic, agronomic, and environmental sustainability." #soilhealth #oats

LSP Ear to the Ground podcast: SW MN farmer Jerry Ackermann makes it clear he does not see profitability and building soil health utilizing no-till and cover crops as mutually exclusive. In fact, for him they go hand-in-hand. #notillfarming #SoilHealth

Shea-Lynn Ramthun, LSP FB grad, farmer & LSP Soil Health staffer: “Oats are a less input-heavy crop...when you follow with corn, you don’t need as much nitrogen. So now we’re not leaching nitrogen, which means cleaner water, healthier soils.” #soilhealth

LSP is growing and we have two brand new positions we are hiring for! Check out the details and the deadlines on our website here:

"If I can fix something with a bale of hay, a cow, or a bag of seed, I'd rather do that than fertilize and haul in a bunch of costly inputs," says grazier Langdon Collom on LSP's Ear to the Ground podcast. #soilhealth #rotationalgrazing #regenerativeag

Today's Star Tribune editorial: #farmbill could be a "force for good" and LSP farmer-members are part of that positive future.

Great editorial from the @startribune on the long-overdue Farm Bill and the importance of expanding conservation funding and Whole Farm Revenue Protection, and addressing corporate consolidation in our food system:

What would you like to see the Minnesota Department of Ag (MDA) support during the 2025 legislative session? Could you take 5 minutes to share your ideas with the MDA about what you would like to see them advocate for during the 2025 legislative session? https://t.co/3BhsSL2rWh

On LSP's latest Ear to the Ground podcast, grazier Rachelle Meyer says: "We ask ourselves, 'Is this enterprise the woman in the red dress? Is it like the shiny object syndrome?' " https://t.co/PeoMcTG9xO #soilhealth #holisticfarming #beginningfarmers #rotationalgrazing

🧑‍🌾Did you know: 21.5 million people work in the American food system, helping put food on our tables. Many of them lack basic protections and rights while at work, and are not included in the #FarmBill. Let’s make the next Farm Bill a #WorkerFriendlyFarmBill.
