Join us at the Stettler Rec Center for a practical producer-focused discussion on building soil health and plant diversity using cover crops. Joe Gardiner, Co-Founder of Covers & Co, will lead the session with grounded insights drawn from years of on-farm experience growing and researching multi-species cover crops in Western Canada.  Joe’s talk will focus on practical cover crop strategies that producers can apply on their own operations — including species selection, establishment timing, and how diverse plant mixes can enhance soil structure, improve moisture-holding capacity, and create additional grazing and forage opportunities without adding unnecessary complexity to your rotation.  The session will go beyond theory to highlight real-world benefits and challenges, with time for questions and discussion, so you can walk away with actionable ideas to evaluate on your farm.
