MTT is produced by Annie's Project, a nationally recognized educational program grown from its inception to serve over 12,000 farm women in 33 states.
The MTT curriculum provides participants with the tools and resources to help begin the process of farm transitioning to the next generation and/or to an appropriate farm business ownership.
Participants will learn about business, estate, retirement, and succession planning from area professionals and subject matter specialists, most of whom serve agricultural clientele in their respective communities. Pertinent discussions accompany presentations including follow-up activities for family members to address at home.
