Every farm knows it should organize essential
documents and financial information, but the
task is easy to delay. This online workshop series
from UW–Madison Extension helps you finally get
it done.
By gathering and organizing your farm’s vital
records, you’ll be better prepared for meetings
with attorneys, accountants, and transition
planning professionals, saving you time, money,
and stress.
The series combines guided virtual instruction,
open office hours, and one in-person workshop to
help you move from “I need to do this someday”
to “It’s finally done.”
