GrassWorks is excited to be hosting our 2025 annual picnic and pasture walk at Pape Family Pastures in Peshtigo, WI. If you’ve been missing the community and inspiration of the GrassWorks conference, the picnic is a perfect time to reconnect with your grazing network and welcome new farmers into the herd!
The Pape’s will kick off the day with a pasture walk highlighting their custom dairy heifers and pastured broilers. Aaron will be sharing his experience with farm finances and how business management has shaped his grazing operations over time. Grazier Ron Schoepp will cover on-farm conservation practices and how they align with managed grazing. And of course, there will be plenty of time for catching up with fellow GrassWorks farmers, members, and friends! Thanks to our USDA-NRCS GLCI grant for the generous support of the picnic!
The cost is $15/person and includes lunch. Kids are welcome and eat free. Pape Family Pastures is located at W5420 Leslie Road, Peshtigo, WI 54157. Get your tickets here!
