Cover Story: Agricultural landscapes in many of the North Central United States have been developed into uniform fields, indicating social agreement about the appropriateness of various farming practices. Farmers and professionals wanting to improve conservation outcomes could use local events that reflect sustainable practices to disrupt and re-envision regional norms, spreading conservation farming practices in a coherent fashion. In Lodi, Wisconsin, the Schoepps Family Farm provides an interpretable vision for the future of agriculture. Their well-managed pastures disrupt what is seen to be “conventional”, and, in doing so, they provide productive farming for themselves, as they contribute to ecosystem services that benefit their fellow community members and Lake Wisconsin.
