Workshops & Pasture Walks
Connecting Wisconsin farmers, conservation workers, and community members
As part of GrassWorks’ mission to provide education to farmers we are committed to hosting and or sharing grazing related workshops and pasture walks that occur throughout Wisconsin and neighboring states. You can always find these events listings on our Events page and subscribe to the GrassWorks Calendar to always keep up to date! This page is for events that we have more information to share with you than fits on the calendar page.
GrassWorks + Ranching for Profit Workshops
In this 2026 workshop series, GrassWorks has invited Ranching For Profit instructor and facilitator John Locke to join us in Wisconsin for two one-day events. Join us at one of these events to:
- Learn why economics should precede finance
- Discover three key strategies to increase profits and identify the weak link to build a plan for growth.
- 5 key principles of grazing
- Explore ecological processes and strategies to boost productivity, reduce workload, and increase profits
Learn more about John here or check out this recent episode of the Ranching Returns podcast to listen to a bit of John’s own story from his family ranch.
