2022 Winter Farminar Series: Working Lands Conservation Programs: Resources & Strategies for Success

March 29, 2022 @ 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM CDT

Working lands conservation programs like the Environmental Quality Incentives Program and the Conservation Stewardship Program can be powerful tools for producers and landowners interested in conservation. However, they can also be challenging to access and confusing to use. Join Kalee Olson and Kayla Bergman of the Center for Rural Affairs to learn more about new resources and potential strategies that will help set producers and landowners up for success.

Kalee Olson is a policy associate with the Center for Rural Affairs. She currently resides on the family farm in rural Nebraska where she was born and raised. Kalee is passionate about helping others realize the significance of their narratives, not just in storytelling, but as voices capable of affecting real change.

Kayla Bergman is a senior policy associate with the Center for Rural Affairs based in its Nevada, Iowa, office. She works on a range of federal and state policy issues and works daily to narrate the stories and values of rural citizens. Kayla also serves as a soil and water conservation district commissioner in Story County, Iowa.
