NFWF Grant Profile

Build off the momentum of the Fox Demonstration Farms by providing an opportunity for other farms to try soil health practices (cover crops, no-till planting) on their farm which will significantly reduce the non-point sediment and phosphorus pollutants that impair the Fox River, Bay of Green Bay, and Lake Michigan. Project will implement Best Management Practices on 1,000 acres of farmland, preventing 290,000 pounds of sediment runoff polution from entering the watershed annually.
