Summer’s coming up. A lot of people are already talking about punch recipes. I always thought punch was a way of saying, “We didn’t buy the good stuff, so we’re going to cover it up with some orange juice and a floating piece of pineapple.”

Chances are, some of you were in 4-H or FFA. A rite of passage for both of these groups is the county fair. A chance to show the surrounding citizens your ability to grow a plant, raise an animal or make something.

I knew the persistence of the American farmer would finally pay off. Through the efforts of farmers on TikTok, Facebook and Instagram, along with lobbyists and people who consider themselves ag-tivists, we have changed the agricultural outlook.

I think the Discovery Channel should have a week devoted to cows. Cows need better PR people. All cows have is Chick-Fil-A and a children’s book about them jumping over the moon.

As farmers, we get asked questions. Here are a few questions people ask me. Some people don’t specify between me, the cows or the farm when asking questions.

It seems the world is moving to less and less human contact. Everything seems to be going to Zoom calls and text messages.
