Planning for the future of your farm or ranch is one of the most important, yet often overwhelming, tasks agricultural families face. Questions of who will take over the family business, how to handle family dynamics, and how to keep relationships strong can feel overwhelming. That’s why BigIron is proud to partner with The DIRTT Project® to bring a unique, expert-led succession planning workshop to the heart of the agricultural community.
Join us December 2-4, 2024, in Des Moines, Iowa, for an event designed to set your family up for future success.
Is Your Family Business Facing These Challenges?
“We don’t know where to start.”
Succession planning can feel like an enormous undertaking. For many families, the thought of starting discussions about who will take over the family farm or ranch seems impossible.
“We have personality conflicts and dysfunction.”
Family dynamics can be complex, and emotions often run high when it comes to discussing the future of a family business. These tensions can make productive conversations difficult to have.
“We’re afraid to talk about it because we don’t want to create conflict.”
It’s not uncommon for families to avoid conversations about succession because they worry about disagreements or emotional fallout. Yet, not addressing these crucial topics can leave everyone feeling stuck.
“We’ve started before, and it didn’t work.”
If previous attempts at succession planning have stalled or failed, you may feel uncertain about how to move forward. You’re not alone—and there is a way to get past the obstacles.
Why Is The DIRTT Project® Different?
The DIRTT Project® brings a fresh, results-driven approach to farm and ranch succession planning. Here’s why it stands out:
- Immediate Impact: Participants leave the workshop with a practical, actionable plan that can be implemented right away.
- Customized Solutions: The program addresses the specific needs of each family’s farm or ranch, taking into account both the business side and family dynamics.
- Expert Guidance: Facilitators experienced in agricultural succession planning will provide tailored advice and support.
- Proven Results: The DIRTT Project® has helped many families across the agricultural community create effective succession plans and improve communication.
Mark Stock: A Commitment to Family Farms

Their mission was rooted in supporting the farming community, and it remains central to BigIron’s purpose today.
