Here are just a few of the topics they speakers will cover:

  • Taking inventory of your current situation
  • Having critical conversations with key stakeholders
  • Identifying ways to involve on-farm and off-farm heirs
  • Reducing your estate tax risk
  • Planning and executing a family meeting
