Kara here with a quick update!

Harvest has officially arrived, which means my office view has temporarily changed from a desk to the cab of a combine as I help my family bring in this year’s crop.

Growing up in agriculture, harvest has always been one of my favorite times of year. It’s busy, rewarding, and a reminder of just how much hard work goes into every season.

Wishing all of our farmers, farm families, and harvest crews a safe, productive, and successful harvest season!
