Stacy and Tenzin Botsford are first generation farmers who are dedicated to the idea that caring for the land and growing high quality organic food can be mutually beneficial for the farm, the farmer, and the community. Their goal was to regain their relationship to the land and to the food that we eat, while helping to revitalize small farms in Central Wisconsin.

This summer, they are embarking on a new adventure as they represent Wisconsin Farmers Union in the Farmers Union Enterprises (FUE) in a special Leadership Program. Organized by the five FUE states of Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin, the program offers participants a chance to hone leadership skills and network with farmers from the five-state region. Activities enhance knowledge of cooperatives and the role of Farmers Union.
