Season 3 Countdown - 3rd Place - “I’ve Got My Foot In The Door… Now What?” w/ Patti Durand

We are celebrating The Impact Farming Show's 3rd Anniversary. To celebrate, we are counting down and rebroadcasting the TOP 5 episodes from season 3.

This week we are excited to bring you the 3rd highest listened to and watched episode, which was “I’ve Got My Foot In The Door… Now What?” w/ Patti Durand.

This episode was originally aired on May 4, 2021.  Are you part of the second generation and are either looking into the process of taking over the farm or maybe you are already in the process of taking over the family farm?  When looking at farm transitioning, we must look at both parties, the first generation that is transferring the family farm as well as the second generation that is taking over the family farm.  It is a difficult process for both, but luckily there are many professionals like Patti Durand to help. 

Geared to the second generation of the farm family, we are happy to bring you our 3rd highest listened to and watched episode.  You do not want to miss this one!

................................................

In this week’s episode, we speak to Patti Durand about advice for the second generation in this episode titled “I’ve Got My Foot In The Door… Now What?”

As a Farm Credit Canada Business Advisor for Transition, Patti works with many farm families to assist them in transferring the farm from the founders to the junior partners. In this work, they see many trends and patterns, and Patti is excited to join us this week to share some actionable for the junior partner.

In this episode, Patti and Tracy chat about:

Patti shares more about Farm Credit Canada's farm transition team, their work, and the difference they are looking to make in the Canadian agriculture industry. She shares a prevalent theme they see where junior partners (the next generation) are trying to “prove” they are ready to take over leadership and ownership of the farm; however, they are guessing BADLY at times. Tracy and Patti discuss the MANY factors and tasks involved in transition planning. Patti then shares the four key things that the junior partner on the farm can focus their efforts on in a productive way.

Are you part of the next generation that is looking to take over your family farm? Do you feel like you are spinning your wheels and getting nowhere fast? If so, we KNOW this episode is precisely what you need to hear today.
