What do you want your farm to look like in five years, and how will you get there? Join flower farmer Jenny Balmes of Warren and Cindy Kern of Cardinal Farms in Dexter as they share their farm plans, discuss the goals that guide their businesses, and explore how planning has helped shape their farms' growth and decision-making. Katie Brandt of MSU Extension will share practical farm planning templates she created based on Jenny and Cindy's farm plans. We'll end with time to reflect on your farm goals, and leave with resources to get started on your own farm plan.
