Two planters. Two generations.

Every time I try to deliver a field meal... 🚜

It's like playing "Where's Waldo?" except Waldo is in a tractor, surrounded by 100 acres of corn, and somehow keeps moving.

By the time I find him, lunch is cold and he's asking what's for dinner. 😂🌽

You asked for a Corydon pick-up location-and we listened! 🌻 We'll be up bright and early this Derby Day at the Harrison County Farmer's Market! Come find us from 8 AM–noon (or until we sell out). We're located in the church parking lot by El Nops. If you're out hitting the garage sales this weekend, swing by and see us. Hope to see you there, and if all goes well, we plan to be back every other Saturday this summer!

Seed companies and farmers work together to put different hybrids head-to-head right in local fields. By allowing plots to be planted on our ground, we give seed companies access to our specific soil types and conditions, data they can't get from a single location.

That real-world info helps everyone. Companies learn how their hybrids actually perform across different farms and regions. Farmers get a firsthand look at how varieties hold up in fields just like theirs, checking yield, standability, and how well plants handle local disease and pest pressure.

It's a partnership that takes the guesswork out of seed selection for the whole community.

Team work makes the dream work 💪🏻

Had a great crew out for Eric Hess’s plot. Thanks for everyone’s support! 🌱

All the farm wives headed to the National Farm Machinery Show for Valentine’s Day… we made you something. 😉

Because nothing says romance like tractors and trade shows.
