Celebrating all our Ag Kids (and grown kids 😉) for their dedication and leadership in agriculture! From fields to livestock, equipment to research—they are the past, present, and future of this industry. With every seed they plant and every challenge they tackle, they shape the landscape of our world. 💙

🚜 Here’s to all the Ag Kids—may their dreams stretch as wide as the fields they nurture, their determination rise as faithfully as the sun, and their passion shine as boldly as the harvest moon.

Some days just fuel your soul and today was one of those days🥰

Precious was a star pupil. And my mini Moo has a heart of gold and is always willing to lend an extra hand💛

Can’t wait to see the lasting positive impact made and the relationships cultivated from these visits!

Can you believe these three are STILL looking for their forever home?! Their last adoption fell through, so they’re back on the market and ready to bring joy (and some serious brush-clearing skills) to the right home!

If you or someone you know is looking to add some fun, hardworking goats to your homestead, these cuties are waiting for you!

What a storm ⛈️ last night! We had a few trees down in pastures but feeling very blessed that all our animals were unharmed and pasture fences remained in tact. The pool fence however, was not as lucky. 🥴

Don’t be sheepish—share your chocolate spoils with friends! 🤎🍫

Just kidding! Memphis isn’t hoarding actual chocolate—it’s just his stash from Mix30, a high-energy liquid protein supplement.

Made from a corn and soy base, Mix30 provides essential protein, which is especially beneficial during the winter when natural forage loses its nutrient density. With several of our yearlings expecting (🤰), keeping their nutrition in top shape is a top priority! Our herd loves their Mix30 served with a side of silage roll—chef’s kiss! 👨‍🍳😙

: Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey to be the national bird of the United States. 🇺🇸 He argued that the bald eagle was of “bad moral character” and that the turkey was a more respectable bird, even calling it “a true original native of America.” However, his idea was never officially proposed, and the bald eagle was chosen as the national symbol in 1782. 🦅

🦃 Big Mike may not be the national bird, but he definitely rules the coop!

🥔 potato salad : potatoes are a good source of carbohydrates and provide essential nutrients like vitamin C, potassium, and fiber

🥕 baby carrots : high in vitamin A and help with eyesight and digestion

🐖 pork butt trimmings & 🐮 chilled beef fat : adds natural flavor to their feed and has been known to contribute to better feather quality and increased egg production

🥚 egg shells : great source of calcium to help produce eggs with strong shells
