AgEmerge Podcast 152 and the 2024 Big Soil Health Event



Guest host David Kleinschmidt joined us at the 2024 Big Soil Health Event in Cedar Falls, IA, where we had the privilege of connecting with some incredible attendees.

 

It was a great event where hundreds of farmers and ranchers from all over the country gathered to learn, share, and encourage each other to continue to adopt soil health strategies. We asked attendees to join us in our “on the road" studio to share their soil health journey.

 

Below is our BSHE podcast guest list showing where they are from and how you can connect:

 

 

  • Blake Vince is a fifth-generation farmer from Merlin, Ontario, Canada. Blake will tell you that soil health is the focus of his farm practices. You may have heard Blake speak at other events - his wisdom and perspective on soil health is certainly an encouragement to growers striving to improve their systems.

 

  • Grant and Dawn Breitkreutz operate Stoney Creek Farm near Redwood Falls, MN. They are also the inaugural winners of the Minnesota Leopold Conservation Award. You’ve seen them on Farmer’s Footprint and so many other places. Their story offers so much hope and sage advice to other growers.

 

  • Phil Smith farms in Minnesota and has a great story of adopting a regenerative system on his farm and encourages growers to know it’s never too late to start!

 

  • Adam Chappell is from Cotton Plant, Arkansas. He grows about 2,500 acres of, corn, soybeans, rice, and occasionally cotton. You've probably seen Adam on YouTube and other avenues as he has been very transparent of his soil health journey and practices.

 

Got questions you want answered? Send them our way and we’ll do our best to research and find answers. Know someone you think would be great on the AgEmerge stage or podcast?

Send your questions or suggestions to kim@asn.farm we’d love to hear from you.
