Welcome to my Blog!

So, it's the beginning of a new venture for me.  I'm starting my blog - and going in blind except for excellent help from my daughter.  Thank goodness for young blood - she's giving me the push I need to get started.

First, a little about us.  We have an organic farm in south central Nebraska that has been in the family for over 100 years.  I became a farmer when I married Tom - and have been learning about agriculture ever since.  We  have organic row crops (this year we have wheat, corn, soybeans and alfalfa) as well as two high tunnels where we are raising organic vegetables for three local grocery stores.  We are growing everything from Mixed Lettuce to Turnips (no, really, they're yummy!) and Tomatoes to a variety of herbs.  This is still a learning experience for us and you'll be seeing us make mistakes along with our successes.  Our family consists of me, my husband and our son and daughter.  The kids both returned to the farm after graduating from college and are the 6th generation to farm our ground. 

It's a busy time in our little town.  We're in the midst of our annual fair and rodeo and today we have the parade and an event on our block, "Walk Down Medina", with all kinds of activities, games and food sales!  Fun!  More on that later.....


'Till Next Time.....
