Ranch Raised

Even in the chaos of spring, I am trying to remind myself to find the pearl in every day.

National Welding Month in April recognizes an industry that has kept the nation growing for generations.

I have no doubt that those who have worn a blue corduroy jacket are world changers both in and out of the ag industry!

It is the 97th annual Nebraska State FFA Convention. This week our future of ag descends on our state’s capital city. I pray that these kids have an unforgettable and positive experience. 

Spring is intoxicating, so come alive with your surroundings.

There is just something so rustic and pure about creating sustenance for your family out of flour, water, and a pinch of salt!

I will send some prayers up for all of us tending to our herds, getting ready to plant the fields, and trying to feed our neighbors. 

March is National Peanut Month! On average, Americans eat about 6 pounds of peanuts per person per year, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). 

Never miss an opportunity to read to a child!
I have always held to the mantra that “readers are leaders!” 

With some planning and meal preparation we can all take some pressure off our wallets when putting food on the table.
