Field days also can help connect people together and inspire ideas to implement back home on the farm.  Jared Siverling of Siverling Century Farm in Bloomer, Wisconsin was just one of the attendees at the organic field day on Tuesday.  Siverling and his wife operate a 500 acre certified organic crop operation, and shares that attending events like this has helped to find new avenues to expand the operation and just be more profitable overall.  "We've tried a lot of the ideas we've seen at various field days," says Siverling, "a lot of times they work great, sometimes not so much."  He says that's just the nature of the business and the fact that each farm is unique in their own way depending on size, location and other factors.  The field days he's attended have not only helped his operation, but have also helped motivate him to be more sustainable and regenerative with his practices to ensure the farm is productive for years to come.
