“Tom and Irene Frantzen will host a tour of their 370-acre organic farm in New Hampton on Aug. 7 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Discussion topics will range from the Iowa Farm Bureau’s carbon sequestration program, to weed control in organic soybean fields, to a comparison between grass-fed and grain-fed cattle.

A light supper will follow sponsored by the Midwest Organic Sustainable Education Service. The Frantzens raise cattle, hogs, corn, soybeans, barley, forages and alternative crops on 370 acres. They have practiced holistic management since 1992. All crops and livestock have been marketed organic since 2002.”
