SDSU Extension will host a virtual Unwinding Farm and Household Finances training on June 30 from 1:00-2:30 p.m. over Zoom.
A farm family's finances can be complex, uncertain, and stressful. While it may seem easier to use one bank account or credit card for both business and household needs, combining them can put the financial security of both at risk. Establishing clear financial boundaries helps families and businesses make informed decisions that support sustainable growth and long-term financial well-being.
The Strengthening Farm and Ranch Household Finances: Financial Wellbeing Toolkit was created with today’s producers in mind. Managing a farm or ranch means navigating unpredictable markets, seasonal income, and ongoing financial pressures. When business and household finances become intertwined—as they often do—the challenges multiply. This Toolkit provides practical tools to help you separate, organize, and strengthen your household finances so both your operation and your family can thrive.
The Unwinding Farm and Household Finances program guides you step-by-step through strategies that support healthier financial management at home. You will learn how to create an annual spending plan, using a cash flow budget, and set meaningful family savings goals. You will leave the program with tools you can immediately put into practice to improve your household financial decision-making.
By taking control of household finances, farmers and ranchers can make choices that build stability, reduce stress, and support the long-term success of both the family and the farm. This program is your pathway to clearer financial boundaries and a stronger financial foundation for the future.
