Lake Wisconsin Farmer Watershed Council

Our Mission

The Lake Wisconsin Farmer Watershed Council is a community of farmers and partners that share a common goal of reducing soil runoff and improving surface water and groundwater quality in the Lake Wisconsin Area.

The Lake Wisconsin Farmer Watershed Council is a Farmer-led group working together to help farmers adopt improved practices that protect and improve surface and groundwater quality. We work with and encourage farmers in the Lake Wisconsin area to learn and adopt new methods of reducing soil erosion and increasing water infiltration on the land they manage.
