Illinois Farm Link Plans August 27 Webinar on Self-Directed IRAs
The cost of buying farmland is a major and sometimes prohibitive hurdle for beginning farmers and those looking to expand their production. Longtime farmers who have retired or are moving in that direction often desire to find a way to keep their land in agricultural production and out of commercial development.
Illinois Farm Link — a program of The Land Connection non-profit that connects and empowers farmers and farmland owners — invites interested parties to participate in a webinar about a creative solution to farmland access. The event and the approach are explained in the following material provided by Illinois Farm Link, which is based in Champaign.

Creative Farmland Access Through Self-Directed IRAs
When: Tuesday, August 27, 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m.
Where: Webinar
Cost: $10.00
With land access being one of the top challenges across the U.S., farmers need creative ideas to access affordable, secure, and long-term land arrangements.
Retirement investors have the potential to help! If you’ve been looking for a creative investment tool that allows you to generate retirement income while also making land available to farmers, then we’d invite you to join this webinar organized by The Land Connection’s Illinois FarmLink program.
We’ll be exploring Self-Directed IRAs through the experience of Mary Gelder (investor) and Wyatt Muse (organic farmer).
Driven by her passion for and commitment to sustainable farming, Mary moved her retirement savings into an SDIRA to buy farmland that Wyatt wanted to farm, but couldn’t afford to buy. During this webinar, Mary and Wyatt will share how SDIRA’s work, how their arrangement was designed, and what they’ve learned so far from their experience.
You’ll also hear from Paul Dietmann of Compeer Financial for other ideas around SDIRAS, including how SDIRA investors could pool their funds to buy more land.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to learn more about a unique, complex, and little-known retirement investment tool. No prior experience or knowledge of retirement investment is required to attend this webinar. There will be time for Q&A at the end of the webinar. Registration is required.
