Free Winter Webinar Series: Get Your Farm Books Ready for Tax Season
TL;DR: Our free Winter Webinar Series starts Nov. 12 with Farm Bookkeeping Basics. We will help farmers organize their records, build a simple bookkeeping routine, and head into tax season with a clearer picture of their finances.
Harvest is busy enough without worrying about receipts and spreadsheets. As things slow down, winter is a good time to get the books organized before tax season gets busier.
Farm Bookkeeping Basics
Thursday, Nov.12, 2026 at 3:30 PM EST
This free session is for farmers and ranchers who want a simpler way to keep up with their books.
What You'll Learn
- How to organize and digitize receipts and records
- How to track farm income and expenses
- Why farm and personal transactions should stay separate
- How to build a bookkeeping routine that works for your operation
Register for Farm Bookkeeping Basics and bring your questions! You do not need to know accounting. Bring the real questions you have about your farm, and we will show you how the numbers connect.
What Do Farmers Actually Ask Us?
These are the kinds of questions farmers have brought to our past webinars:
- “I received grant money. Where does that go in my books?” We talk through how to think about farm income, expenses and categories so you know what questions to bring to your bookkeeper or tax professional.
- “I want to know which part of my operation is actually making money.” Farmers have asked how to get more detailed with their bookkeeping by enterprise, whether that is different crops, livestock or another part of the farm.
- “How do I make sure I’m not messing up my taxes?” We hear this one a lot. Good records throughout the year make it easier to understand what happened on the farm and prepare for tax season.
And in our Advanced Farm Financials webinar, we walked through an example farm that had a 53% gross margin but still needed a $50,000 grant to break even. That example helped show why looking at revenue alone does not tell you whether the farm is financially healthy.
