On the 24th of September we'll be touring 5 unique, small-scale, direct market farm businesses in the Lincoln/Southeast Nebraska area. If you are curious about local, direct-market farms around Lincoln, this is a great opportunity to learn and hear from producers!
This is a bit different from past diversified ag . tours, as participants will drive themselves to all (or any) of the farm tours. You choose how many you want to go on.
Tours start at a specific time, so we ask that you meet us at the scheduled time and place, and we'll go on a tour together!

Nebraska Land Link provides opportunities to connect land seekers with retiring landowners.
Land access is one of the biggest challenges facing aspiring and beginning farmers. For some landowners, they simply do not have the next generation available to take over their operation.
When you apply to Nebraska Land Link, either as a land seeker or a landowner, Nebraska Extension personnel will work to match your application with the most compatible counterpart. Using the answers you submit and offer in a potential interview, Nebraska Land Link matches are based on the shared values, interests and skills of both parties, so that a mutually beneficial and satisfying partnership can be forged over the course of the transition plan.
