Talking Conservation with Becky Feikema
A significant rain event ten years ago prompted a change in farming practices for the Feikama family in southwest Minnesota. As we learn from Becky Feikema, the transition was successfully made to strip tillage and cover crops. Feikema also highlights Farmers for Soil Health and a documentary that is sharing the family's story in a very unique way.

From the Heartland
Available for public viewing starting
June 10, 2024 on YouTube.
“From the Heartland” was filmed locally as a partnership of the Feikema family and Director/Editor Matthew Coddaire.
From the Heartland is a candid depiction of American Agriculture, and the rural towns that are reliant on its success. But when an industry’s ability to thrive is dependent on progress, how does the family farm discard the practices that have been passed down through generations, to try something new and save the land?
