Small changes ripple outward

If you can endure doing one of these things each day for 21 days in a row, you can rewire your brain to scan the world and take in the positive instead of the negative in turn increases your dopamine making you more happy which in reality is my definition of successful: ~3 gratitudes

~exercise
~meditation
~random acts of kindness

Hops

The live potted hop plants we have for sale are grown from softwood cuttings in summer. Once rooted they are potted in a 3″ container. Then allowed to go dormant in a cold greenhouse for winter. In spring they start to grow and are available for sale at

Name: Jordan LiethenEmail: jmliethen@gmail.comComment: Hi Matt,This message is a culmination of many Google searches. What I am looking for is information on hop growing in Wisconsin. I have recently had the good fortune to be hired as my hometown’s Agriculture teacher, and with that, I am moving back to the family farm after over a decade. In that time, my parents have quit the dairy business, gotten much older, and are looking to me for the future of our farm. Restarting milking cows is out of the question (for right now) but I have been thinking about other agricultural ventures to pursue for a while now. I have been a home brewer for a few years and started growing my own hops last year. I have come to the conclusion that a hop farm would be a worthwhile pursuit. But, I have many questions about this such as how do I get started, what do I need and where do I get it, what varieties are recommended, and the big one…once I have hops, what do I do with them? I found you through the Wisconsin Hop Exchange page and thought that I would reach out to see if you would be willing to help. Coming from an agriculture background, I love the idea of being in a cooperative! Now to be frank, I am not being casually interested here…I am serious about starting a hop farm. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!Thank you very much!Jordan Liethenjmliethen@gmail.comTime: Monday May 20, 2013 at 11:35 pmIP Address: 216.56.44.10Contact Form URL:

We are now duck owners

We are now the proud owners of 6 one day old ducks. 1 duck is a Blue Swedish breed and the rest are called Ancona ducks. These ducks came from Farm & Fleet and they fly like bricks, stay close to thier coop, and are so darn cute.
