Preserve Your Legacy

Growing crops and livestock is one thing.
Growing your operation is another.

Even the most successful farmers find it challenging to manage a complex operation.

That’s because farming and ranching require one set of skills while managing a successful business takes a completely different set.

Eric

"I continue to be amazed at the similar issues all of our operations face/struggle with. Whether it is orchard farming in Canada or no-till farming in Kansas or crop farming in northern Minnesota, we are all dealing with similar issues. I would also use the analogy that iron shapes iron. It is refreshing to be with like-minded producers who have similar goals of making their business better each and every day they go to work."

Chris

"Your decision-making is so much better. You walk into the room here and you are talking to one person, that's great. You learn something. You talk to 10 people: what they learned, what they tried, ask the right question at the right time. It's a much more powerful situation." 

David

“As we continue to get bigger, we face new challenges with the need to better manage more complex financials and employees. I received a lot of good information on management possibilities, and how best to structure employees and managers. After going through the program, I have a much better sense of ways to gain control of tracking machinery, maintenance, and labor costs which helps our farm be more profitable. I have met some very interesting and highly informed and smart people in this peer group. The information and openness of this group are the best I have ever experienced. It has offered me an opportunity to see other farms and learn why they are successful”

Mark Foster

“I appreciate the opportunity to work with Tim as he brings experiences from a wide variety of different producers and farming operations.”

Marshall

"It's a tremendous opportunity to meet some of these other successful business people and learn from their experiences, and share experiences and ways in which they've addressed issues and problems. And quite honestly we all have the same issues and problems. It's been tremendous to learn and see how they've dealt with things"
