Grass-fed Beef, Burger Nights, and Much More! Together Farms raises nutrient-dense, 100% grass-fed beef & lamb, and pastured pork organically, and without any weird stuff, on their Wisconsin family farm. And with seasonal events, like summer Burger Nights and Dinners on the Farm, you can experience a true farm-to-table meal. Food that fits your life.

About Wisconsin Women in Conservation

WiWiC is a state-wide collaborative effort led by the Michael Fields Agricultural Institute in partnership with Wisconsin Farmers Union, Renewing the Countryside and Marbleseed (formerly MOSES).  A three-year multi-faceted project funded by the USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), WiWiC brings together Wisconsin women landowners to connect and learn about conservation practices, resources, and funding opportunities.
