Join us for a vibrant celebration of community, agriculture, conservation, and soil at the 2025 Kaw Valley Field Day!
Saturday, October 11th | 3-10pm | FREE | All Ages
Hosted by Save Our Soil Kaw Valley Foundation, this annual event brings together families, farmers, and friends to enjoy local food, music, educational workshops, and fun activities amid the beautiful landscape of the Kaw River Valley.
Held at the iconic Shirk's Barn and Farm, surrounded by harvest-ready fields, Field Day is a festive, hands-on reminder of the land’s value—and why it must be protected.
This inaugural event is more than a fundraiser—it’s a celebration of community and the land that sustains us. Surrounded by autumn’s bounty—corn, soybeans, pumpkins, and winter squash—you’ll see firsthand the richness and productivity of the very soil we strive to protect.
