My Purpose

In awe of a farmers’ daily ‘to do’ list.

I asked questions.

Listened.

Learned.

Took portraits of ‘the original, american entrepreneur.’

Told their stories on Facebook

Shared the certainty.

Of what ‘i saw:’

The farmers. Milk haulers. Veterinarians. Salesman. Grain bin builders.

2021: Generations removed, 3 and 4 times from a farm.

Unknown.

My purpose.

Clearly.

Certain.

#celebrateWORK.

Born of my blue-collar father’s roots.

Rejected at 18 years old!

Embraced:

When I listened to a farmer.

Share The 'Who' of Ag with Youth!

Stories.

Words.

Pictures.

Wondering.


How a city kid.

Never on a farm.

Can know agriculture.


Without…

Getting the dirt.

Of agriculture.

In their sights.

And on their hands.


Three platforms to share The 'Who' of Ag:

1. Borrow this Career Photo Exhibit: ‘a life. from dirt.’ (with Wisconsin Ag Career Resource Guide.) Exhibit is owned by Rountree Gallery and is free to borrow.  Click here to see a Trailer Video:  https://www.midwestfarmreport.com/a-life-from-dirt/


2. Buy my book: When I listened to a farmer. 

On Amazon.com

On BarnesAndNoble.com:


3. Book me to Speak: ‘The 'Who’ of Ag!  

        Character. Matters.

Agriculture.

A career choice.

Certainty:

Meaningful.

A Circle of life.

Uncertain to many:

Listening…to a farmer:

‘Worth repeating…’
