Turkey tussle, anyone? A few years ago while coordinating the annual Thanksgiving Media Day for the Minnesota Turkey Growers Association, I attempted to shoot a little video for our members, letting them know what was happening and thanking them for their assistance and support of this event.

Joe – His school […] Read more…

Some day. In the meantime, my farm blogger friend, Katie, from On the Banks of Squaw Creek, has […] Read more…
I often blog or do other work at the kitchen counter. I sit on one of our barstools, type away on my laptop, and Earl the pug sits right underneath me on the hardwood floor. He is oblivious, it seems, to the fact that the floor can not possibly be as comfortable as his fleece […] Read more…
