Anyone guessed that I love my work? Even in the face of crisis, like now, I know what I was put here on this planet for. To farm, to dairy, to teach; these are my passions. Add in there -- to innovate -- a restless curiosity and need to move forward --...

We've had a few good frosts and freezes here, so I've accepted that the peppers and basil and such are done for the year. However, I was not ready to wake up this morning to 2 inches of snow on the ground! Even with the wet ground, as I write this...

Well, we live in the middle of nowhere. When I drive out to go check cows, this is my view for about 2 miles.
I enjoy living out in the country, but it is hard to find good help. But, having a family farm, means that I DO have some...
