Resolve to BE…v.2016
Who you are can make your world a better place. It's 2016...resolve to Be, not just Do.
Giving Tuesday.
Being a part of Giving Tuesday is as easy as giving your neighbour a hand. Giving a stranger a smile. Giving your time to those who need it. Giving your experience to those who can learn from it.
Waste and Want.
Food waste is an integral part of the sustainability conversation for farmers, not only as a renewable energy source but also as part of the solution for hunger in a time where we farmers truly are capable of feeding the world.
Resolve to BE.
A singular task may accomplish your "to do" list but who you are can make your world a better place. Resolve to BE.
It’s a Well Deserved, Wonderful Life.
It is, indeed, a well deserved, wonderful life for we dairy farmers, milk truck drivers and everyone who works to get our milk to your table.
Giving Tuesday.
If we give and you give then our world will be a better place. Take the time to count your blessings and then make the time to give your time, your strength, and your love so that others might count their blessings, and among them they will count you. What better day to give than Giving Tuesday.

One of the best things about being a farmer is being able to make your way of life the way you make your living, and usually that means being able to call home your workplace. That’s also one of the downsides to being a farmer: when you don’t get off the farm much you don’t really get to talk with folks…you know, the folks that don’t trip over semen tanks, keep tow chains and bags of seed corn in their trucks, or treat sunrise as the halfway mark of their day. When you don’t talk to THOSE folks they don’t get to know you and they certainly don’t stand a chance of understanding what it’s really like to be a farmer. That’s why it’s not only important to get off the farm but also make the most of those off farm adventures.
It’s not every day that a dairy farmer…

Just Smile.
...along with all the blessings of being a farmer there are the heartaches and pain that sometimes drown out all the good things. But because we are farmers we don't step back long because it's okay to get riled up. It's more than okay to fight for what's right. It is never wrong to protect your own, we just have to do it between milkings and after the crops are in... and we have to remember to #justsmile.
