The saying goes that "Every day is Earth Day for farmers and Ranchers." And I have to agree. Because as I was listening to all the things that people were thinking about this Earth Day, just because it was Earth Day, I had to laugh at the fact that I think about the Earth constantly. Truly as a farmer just about everyday I have my hands in the dirt, looking at what is going on, checking on the crop. Making sure that we are treating the land well, so it will treat us well in return.

My view on Earth Day today...cultivating radish seed, driving as straight as possible!!

As a third generation farmer I can feel the history and legacy that we have in this land. And it's not there because we have treated it poorly, it's there and better than before because of our respect for the dirt and what it can do for us when treated well. So happy Earth Day...today and everyday...from this farmer to you!
