4 Unique Events Across the Nation
Good agronomic advice is easy to buy, and nearly every speaker worth hearing already has a talk on YouTube. But what you can't order online is a fellow producer hundreds of miles away who has already made the mistake you're about to make and will pick up when you call. That kind of support network gets built in person, over shared meals and hallway conversations and the late evenings after the last session wraps up.
Regenerative Nexus is a farmer-to-farmer gathering hosted by Green Cover with support from like-minded businesses and organizations that share our commitment to healthy soil and thriving farms. You won't find a trade show floor or a sales pitch. Producers who want to steward the ground God entrusted to them come together to meet one another, share what has worked on their own operations, invest in the growers around the table and connect in ways that last long after they drive home.
This year Nexus is coming to four regions so more producers can find their people closer to home. Each event is shaped by the crops and climate of its area and by local hosts who know it well, and the reason to come is the same everywhere.

This was the best event that I have ever been to. It combined all the topics that I am interested in: soil health, cover crops, organic, no-till, and livestock.
Everyone attending had the same ultimate goal, which was soil health and new creative ways of doing things.
Real practical experience from people who are doing it on their own dime.
The lack of sales pitch and industry, feel like it really helped producers open up and share. I liked the geographic and commodity diversity that was in the room.
I feel like producers were also more willing to open up because it was a room of professional farmers that operated at scale, so it was easy to relate.
It is really hard to put a value on the contact book I have now. The access to information & knowledge is increased exponentially having that.
Pick the event that fits you best and come ready to meet the people who will help you farm better for years to come.
Because Nexus is as much about the connections you make as the sessions you hear, attending more than one event is a great way to widen your network, and we encourage it if your schedule allows. Feel free to call anyone on the Green Cover sales team at 402-469-6784 for help choosing the event that's right for you.
