Tentrr is down and packed away for winter, hoses are coiled, yard is mostly 🙄 cleaned up for winter plowing.

Breathing a big sigh as this year’s growing season projects and activities come to completion and wheels start turning toward the rest-and-education season. 📚

New learning and listening opportunities coming soon, friends! ❤️❤️

Lately I’ve been focusing on the Success Princip

Lately I’ve been focusing on the Success Principle of Cleaning Up Messes & Incompletes, and have been saving up salted sheepskins in our basement for a while. 🙄

Today’s Adventure!

Doing a one-day marathon driving trip to PA with 77 hides from four farms (including ours) to visit the incomparable Buck’s County Furs. 🐑🚗

Drove through six states, watched sunrise and sunset, went over the Cuomo Bridge (super cool design), enjoyed the lovely bridges around New Haven, got a personal Buck’s tour (so cool!), and came home a totally different way. 🚗🛣

I was hoping to visit some of my PA buddies, but it just didn’t happen this time around…Next time, friends! ❤️😍

Whew, feels really good to clean out that basement, clear the annoyances and headspace it’s taken up as I scramble around the pile, AND I’ll have about 30 new sheepskins to sell next spring and summer!

Hi, I’m Jenn Colby. For more than 25 years, I’ve worked with livestock farmers and ranchers through for-profit, non-profit, Extension, and academic locations. I’ve taught students of all ages, brought farmers together for pasture walks and conferences, and spent lots of time standing by the truck having a good chat afterward. In all these years, I’ve come to have a deep appreciation for the way farmers and ranchers learn from…other farmers and ranchers.

I started the Choosing to Farm podcast to highlight the stories and share experience gained from people all across the country who have chosen to raise livestock. We have low-key, honest conversations about how we’ve gotten here, what it’s like to manage animals, how we run our businesses, and what the path to getting a farm or ranch started really looks like. So far, guests have ranged from Vermont to California, with a wide variety of livestock, sizes and business types represented.

If farmer stories are something you’d enjoy listening to, join the Choosing to Farm podcast mailing list (link in bio!) to have new episodes delivered right to your inbox.

In both farming and life, hard work and perseverance always pay off. 🥰

Other times, when things seem insurmountable, all we want is to get outside and head for the hills (and hay). ⛰️

Rise and Shine! ✨

So how do you stay motivated? 😉

Mid-airport picnic dinner. I’m in Minneapolis-St

Mid-airport picnic dinner. I’m in Minneapolis-St. Paul on my way to my @ranching4profit Executive Link meeting in Billings, Montana.

For three days, three times a year, we meet to share (and look into) each others’ businesses. Sometimes it feels really personal, and hard, but it’s the best thing I’ve ever done for my businesses and our future. I see a new future and new possibilities every time I come.

I can’t ever overstate how important it is to do the hard work. It makes life SO much easier. That might sound backwards, but it’s really not. I’ve spent a lot of my life working really hard but avoiding the REALLY hard work. That changed about five years ago, which led me to Ranching for Profit, leaving my day job, and discovering my true purpose.
