For these seasoned farmers, it's not just about getting things done—it's about doing them right, no matter the challenges. They taught me that #growth doesn't stop with age, and I hope to carry the same mindset into my late 70s as they have! 🙏🏽

The microbes have kept us on our toes, sometimes perplexing us—but always in a way that pushed us to #rethink, re-evaluate, and #adjust, leading to real #transformation in the fields. Curating the project's content for my presentation deepened my appreciation for Glen and Kathy's #persistence.
