Fired from yet another job.
I was offered a job in agriculture.
Selling seed corn to Farmers.
At 55 years old.

Poker faces.
Shit covered boots.

10 Cheese creations that offer best practices for living. Inspired by the 'ways of a Farmer.'

3.
There’s More to Agriculture than Manure!
All our Roots. Run through a Farm. We all have a ‘feeling’ of a loved one or an experience that comforts us. And in this world — where there is ‘No Living. Without Work…’ I uplift Farmers to emphasize: “Our ‘Who’ > our ‘Do.’

I look forward to speaking with you.
