Scribner, NE

My husband, Sid, and I farm near Scribner on land that has been in my family since it was homesteaded in 1870. We have four adult children and four grandchildren. Sid and I have a no-till operation growing soybeans, corn, alfalfa and incorporating cover crops. The cover crops are fed to our small herd of Shorthorn cows. I also raise chickens and turkey s that we sell directly to consumers, along with the beef we produce. Sharing my food story from production to plate is one of my favorite conversations.
