Ranch Raised

Setting up a simple meal plan at the beginning of the week gives you a framework for success to follow.

It’s never too early to start a conversation with kids about farm safety. From discussing farm emergency plans for tornadoes, fires, to showing how to use fire extinguishers, emergency preparedness is a topic that can be taught to all ages.

Slow down, be alert and stay safe on our rural roads! Welcome back to Ranch Raised.  

We can work together to put “Safety First, Avoid the Worst”! It starts by keeping ag communities safe, healthy, and injury free! Get in action for National Farm Safety and Health Week to help promote farm safety all week . 

And it all reminds me that there, right before my eyes, my heart is full and I am so thankful for this simple life. 

I’ve got some pumpkin snickerdoodle dough that needs baked and then I better check on those peaches to see who ready to go into jars. It may not be a fancy life, but it is perfect for me!

There are a lot of big emotions swirling and fermenting in our country and if there is one thing that I am sure of, it is that none of the answers to any social problems are found on the internet, I mean except when I need to look up my sheet pan pancake recipe.

Do you ever look at the rearview mirror to see how far you have come in the last 365 days? Birthdays tend to do that to a person.

So, maybe this is my challenge to all of us during this busy back to school season. Let’s get our tables cleaned off and get some feet under it!
