It’s a great afternoon to be harvesting the wheat 🌾 babies.

Thanks to each and every one of you that supported us during the auction and were patient during the two days of load out. Today we were able to start wheat 🌾 harvest. It went very smooth considering that it was the first day. Onward!

We would like to thank everyone that took time from their busy day to come to our open house. It was great sharing stories and memories of our family farm and the future plans with everyone who attended. We are fortunate that we have the opportunity to pivot and continue to improve our farm and family. Again, thank you all so much. We appreciate your support!

We are reorganizing our farm operation and inviting others to enjoy ownership and use of equipment we no longer use in our daily farming operations. We are in our second year of being completely no-till with cover crops on all of our acres and no longer have the time to keep all of these treasures running, so here’s your chance to own some well loved equipment. We are having an open house tomorrow to kick some tires and answer your questions. Hope to see everyone interested tomorrow.

Looking for conservation equipment but not sure where to find it? The Minnesota Farmers Union Foundation just launched a new SWCD Conservation Equipment Rental Dashboard to help landowners and farmers find equipment rentals near them for conservation practices like no-till, cover crops, agroforestry, and pasture and native perennial plantings.
