Join us Saturday, August 27,
for the Third Annual Latham Freedom
of Independence Ride!

At Latham Hi-Tech Seeds, we hold independence close to heart, and nothing shows an independent spirit like an American farmer (except perhaps an American farmer on a Harley).

Join us for a different kind of field day – Latham Hi-Tech Seeds’ Third Annual Freedom of Independence Ride, Saturday, August 27. You’ll learn about Latham® seeds and new seed technologies as we travel some of the most scenic roads in northeast Iowa and southwest Wisconsin.

Ride Details
The 90-mile ride will both begin and end in historic Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, the oldest community on the Upper Mississippi River. Activities will begin around 11:00 A.M. with a traditional Wisconsin-style barbecue and riders will be sent in groups of 20-25, with a staggered start. The ride will end around 6 p.m. with a complimentary hog roast.

The route will feature four showcase plots including Latham® Hi-Tech Hybrids and Latham® Hi-Tech Soybeans with LibertyLink®, Agrisure® and the Genuity® family of traits and technologies.

As we travel through both states there will be many fun stops along the way. While riding south through Wisconsin, at Cassville, we’ll cross the Mississippi on the notable Cassville Car Ferry, which has served the area since 1833. Another pit stop will be Guttenberg, Iowa, named one of America's 20 Prettiest Towns by ForbesTraveler.com. Participants can take a break to tour Lock and Dam 10, visit the Guttenberg Aquarium and Fish Management Station, or stroll along the two-mile river walk.

Traveling Iowa's byways on the Great River Road, riders are sure to enjoy breathtaking views of limestone bluffs and charming river towns!

Muscle Cars Welcome!
Don’t have a bike, but still want to ‘ride’? This year, we’re welcoming muscle cars for the first time!
