A five-session course titled “Managing for Today and Tomorrow: Farm Transition Planning” begins next week in Washington. The program is geared for women and will cover passing down the farm through business, estate, retirement and succession planning. The program will focus on management processes and what decisions need to be made for a successful transition. Hands-on activities and interaction with local professionals will be part of the course.

It is open to participants of all ages and experience levels. The course begins Tuesday, January 27th, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Washington Extension Office and will be held the following four Tuesdays. For more information contact Nancy Adrian at the Extension Office at 653-4811.
