Marie Raboin is a Conservation Specialist for Dane County, Wisconsin. In this episode, you'll hear about Marie’s work with a new farmer network called the BFFs (Biological Farming Friends), why she’s big on farmer dates, and why you maybe shouldn’t invite everyone to the meeting. You can see more from this conversation on the Grassland 2.0 YouTube channel.

Stories on Pasture is supported by the Grassland 2.0 project. This project is made possible thanks to a Sustainable Agricultural Systems Coordinated Agriculture grant from the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture.
