How Minnesota Is Assisting New Farmers With Equipment Grants

2 days ago | river967.com | Dave Thomas

It is well documented how difficult farming can be. To be honest, the word difficult doesn’t seem like it truly accurately describes what farmers face. Battling the weather, which they can’t control, is one of the biggest challenges they face. How much things cost is another major aspect of farming which can add stress to farmers. Everything from what they feed their animals if they have any, to what they use to grow what they grow is costing them more.

I don’t want to wish the summer away, because I truly enjoy it. But it’s not my favorite season, that would FOOTBALL SEASON BABY! (Sorry, I didn’t mean to scream). I have a saying that GOD put football season where he did so we could get over the fact that summer was gone.

Since I moved to Minnesota in September 2023, I’ve been all around Central Minnesota and a little beyond. My travels have been mostly for work, but I’ve gotten to see a lot of the towns and cities around the area. There’s one thing I’ve learned about Stearns County, which is the county I live in now, it’s big. Much bigger than I thought it was when I moved here.

This is the season to go outside and enjoy the beauty of Minnesota.

It’s well documented that kids love summertime. There are many reasons they enjoy the warmer months of the year, combining all the swimming, and playing outside with the fact there’s no school; to a kid that is the closest thing to heaven. But for some kids, being out of school is a disadvantage from the standpoint that they don’t have access to a consistent food supply. For some, they’re able to eat breakfast and lunch at school not knowing if there will be anything for dinner when they get home.

We have definitely become a society of convenience. For those of us that are a little older (by a little, I mean a lot), we can remember a time when there was only 1 television in the house, the phone was wired to the wall, and it hung in the kitchen or the living room and most extravagant thing we had in our bedrooms was a stereo. My how things have changed. Now we’ve got TV’s in practically every room, and we carry our phones around in our pockets.

We all know that professional sports generate big profits. Honestly, most of us can’t really comprehend the kind of money that swirls around these teams. We hear the number but genuinely understanding the amount is really hard for us common folk to do. This week, the Los Angeles Lakers sold reportedly for ten billion dollars. Of course, the Lakers are a legacy team in the NBA sharing the most titles with Boston. Prior to the sale of the Lakers, Boston sold for six billion dollars.
