You cannot drive through a midwestern state without encountering the views of silo’s, tractors, barns, livestock, and an abundance of grain fields. Most people overlook these establishments and don’t understand the necessary demands that farmers encounter daily to provide for their communities and families. Being part of a 3-generation farm has many challenges within the business, along with factors that we have no control over: climate, inflation and taxes to name a few. Not only do I wish to express the many challenges that family farms endure, but I want to showcase the parts that people don’t see: the feeling of being a part of one. There is no true word or words that can describe the feeling of owning or being a part of a family farm. The feelings are deep, meaningful, and rooted through tradition.
