Local family farmers
We’re all for clean water.
As Wisconsin corn farmers, clean water is everything to us. And we know it’s everything to you too.
Heather and Matt Reu
The first thing that comes to mind when Heather thinks about clean water is health – a healthy family and healthy farm.
Willie and Candice Hughes
Willie’s passionate about doing right by the environment – including adding cover crops that keep crop nutrients in the field and out of waterways.
Rick and Kimberly Gehrke
Farming less than a mile away from Wisconsin’s Fox River makes Rick conscientious about the farming practices that can impact those downstream.
Ryan and Brianna Ripp
Farm practices like no-till farming that leave the soil in a more natural state build organic matter and protect against water erosion – keeping water cleaner for all of us.
