Join the Cannon River Watershed Joint Powers Organization as they host the second session of the 2025-2026 virtual learning series “Land to Lake Lectures.” Since agriculture began, soil organic matter has declined by 50–70% in many farm fields, reducing productivity and resilience. Jodi DeJong-Hughes, University of Minnesota Extension, will explain why organic matter is critical for soil health, water retention, and nutrient cycling. Additionally, she will share strategies farmers and gardeners can use to rebuild organic matter. Funding options for implementing conservation practices will also be discussed. The sessions will be broadcast in cooperation with the University of Minnesota Extension on Zoom.The free webinar will be held on Thursday, November 20, 2025, at 12:00 pm over the lunch hour. Register for the webinar at https://z.umn.edu/OrganicMatter. The webinar will be video recorded and posted on the CRWJPO’s website at https://www.cannonriverwatershedmn.gov afterward for those who cannot attend.
The virtual learning sessions “Land to Lake Lectures” will continue throughout the fall and into the spring with a different topic each month over the lunch hour.
