OFI 1820: Building A Family Farm Legacy And Learning The Business | FFA SAE Edition | Brooklyn Lowe | Kuna High School FFA | Re-Cap Episode
On tomorrow's Agricultural Business Episode I will be speaking with the CEO of Harvest Hosts about how farmers can make extra money hosting people on their farms overnight. This made me think back to the interview I did with Kuna's own, Brooklyn Lowe, formerly of the Kuna FFA Chapter. Brooklyn and her family own and operate "The Farmstead" which is an agritourism destination about three miles from my own farm. When I owned the gopher extermination business I did work for Brooklyn's father, Jim, at a previous location they operated at. Later, I was able to interview Jim about their business, and then I eventually came to know Brooklyn through my and Hattie's involvement in the Kuna FFA. The story of this family business, which Brooklyn will one day take over, is one of vision, patience, persistence and growth. And I think it ties in perfectly with tomorrow's ag business episode. |
