I would like to introduce you to 5 very important friends of the Morning Ag Clips: Reliability, Integrity, Authenticity, Teamwork, and Joy. This group of five is considered our inner circle, the core. It is the team we go to at the Morning Ag Clips when we need a reminder of who we are and what our purpose is every day. These 5 dig in, roll their sleeves…
Owning a small business is like wrestling with a beast every single day. It’s a beast that plays with your life savings, and toys with your retirement, daring you to jump into the abyss of failure when things get tough and you must get going. The Beast forces you to stare the balancing act of managing employees and wanting to give them the world despite what the numbers…
Ever seen one of these? I would be shocked if you hadn’t. They are a staple on our farm– a calling card. The yellow Genex Breeding Card. Never throw one out. It might have a valuable piece of information on it, scrawled in hen scratch, smeared with grease and oil–even an occasional splat of manure. On my home farm, my uncle was famous for using brown paper towels as…
It’s a podcast kind of world, helping us to collect many grains of sand along the way. With busy schedules and minimal time, it’s nice to multitask by taking information auditorily. Recently I have had the opportunity to speak with 2-podcasters and be a guest on their shows. It was a lot of fun! Thank you, Chrissy Wozniak of North American Ag and Matt Brechwald of Off Farm Income.…
It’s the clinking of glasses, the spread of amazing food, and the twinkling candle light nestled in nooks all over the warmly lit house. It can be one of the most magical times of the year. Last night we had the office Christmas party, here at my house. Unfortunately we didn’t have the entire Morning Ag Clips crew, but we had most! 8 out of the 11, not…
We thought it would be fun for you to hear more from the rest of us so we talked Kate into these takeovers! I get to go first because I HAVE to make amends for that terrible photo she shared of us getting those fabulous donuts in Vermont a few weeks ago! For the record, I was trying not to look down at the donuts while looking at…
Morning Ag Clips Mobile is finally here! It’s a busy world, and we know our readers want to keep up with the news with the push of a button. So download the app, and tap the MAC icon on your phone for the latest agriculture information! And here’s a very special thank you to our co-stars! Thank you, EVERYONE! I can’t tell you enough how grateful I am,…
It’s so close we can taste it! The MAC App! It’s a heavy lift, and it has taken a lot of hands in and out of the pot–for this last push to get it done. Getting a project across the finish line is hard for the entire team–regardless of whether or not they are working directly on it. (You guys make the dream work!) It’s about picking up…
I fly at 10,000 feet. Where do you fly? Do you like looking out over everything, soaring above the details? Or does your eye go to the weeds, staring every single one straight in the eye, like a crop duster? I like to see far, into the distance, flying high above the clouds. Diving close to the earth makes me nervous; it’s not a natural place for me.…
Jeronimo! And thank you! I am sending out a big, heartfelt thank you, to all of those who helped with our Daily Dirt Campaign. It was a success! We generated enough money to keep on going. Design work is already underway, maybe an app launch by the end of the year? Fingers crossed, that’s what we are going to try for… but AFTER the launch of the Morning…
