Good Idea Shop Talks: A Farmer Meet-up Series for Problem Solving to Improve Soil, Land, and the Bottom Line

Good Idea Shop Talks is a virtual meet-up series for row crop and livestock producers to exchange ideas for troubleshooting on-farm challenges related to improving soil and water resources, while protecting profitability. It’s an opportunity to connect with producers from beyond your local community and learn from each other’s successes and failures.

In each Shop Talk, a producer kicks off the conversation by pitching a question related to a challenge they are experiencing with a conservation practice or a soil and water resource concern. Then the group workshops the question together, with opportunities to share their own experiences and soak up the lessons others have learned.

The winter 2026 season takes place Thursdays, January 22nd, 29th, and February 5th, 2026 on Zoom. Each starts at 11:30am CT / 12:30pm ET and lasts about an hour.
