Join us for our annual Landowner 101 workshop - covering all the basics you need to know to manage your land and get started in agriculture
Are you a new landowner and looking for information about managing your land?
Since 2018, the Landowner 101 Workshop series has been our flagship program targeted towards engaging with new landowners and providing an approachable introduction to the many components of land management. Started in McKinney, TX, this workshop series has grown to engaging and partnering with landowners across North Texas in cooperation with the AgriLife Extension offices in Collin, Denton, Hunt, and Grayson Counties.
In this program, landowners will learn the basics of everything from maintaining their ag valuation and grant/cost—share programs to pasture and livestock management. Our goal is to equip new and experienced landowners with the basic knowledge and tools to plan and implement the operational goals they have for their property.
