💚 #IamYourFarmer Thursday
🎙Host of The Rural Woman Podcast

On this week’s episode of The Rural Woman Podcas

On this week’s episode of The Rural Woman Podcast, you’ll meet Kyle Brisendine. Kyle began farming at age 5 when she bought her first sheep with money she saved. The next year she showed her first registered ewe against the adults in the open class because she was too young for 4-H. Fast forward a few years and university in England where she received her BSc (Hons) in Agriculture with an emphasis on livestock followed by a Masters of Agriculture in Integrated Resource Management from Colorado State University. Kyle now manages willowfarmllc, a regenerative grass farm in southern lower Michigan where she sells grass fed beef and lamb along with wool in the on-farm shop.

‘I think because of the hard work that these women have done before us in generations past (women in agriculture), I don’t think we need anyone to define us anymore, WE get to DEFINE WHO WE ARE’ - billijmiller
.
I have the honour and privilege of sharing stories of Women In Agriculture through #TheRuralWomanPodcast. My friend and mentor, Billi, spoke these words all the way back in episode 3. These words have stuck with me ever since she spoke them.
.
Recently there was a conversation over in The Rural Woman Podcast Community group on Facebook about this shirt & phrase ‘I Am Your Farmer’.
.
For me, it took a lot of courage the first time someone asked me what I did for a living and I told them that I was a farmer. Not I’m married to a farmer or I’m a farm wife, no, I am a farmer. That being said, I don’t take offence to the term Farmwife either. Knowing first hand the effort and the team work that it takes to operate a farm allows me to define myself and my roll. If you are in the field or the office, in the tractor or raising kids, running pivots or chasing goats - you ARE vital to your operation. The outsiders don’t get to diminish that. You get to define YOU.
.
WHEW - I’ll step off my soap box now 😆 if you’re interested in one of these t-shirts, they are available over @ SHOP WildRoseFarmer, links in my bio (pssst they’re on sale this weekend 🎉). Purchases through SHOP WildRoseFarmer support the stories of women in Ag being shared on The Rural Woman Podcast.
.
Keep sharing your stories, friends ❤️

Happy Canada D’eh! 🇨🇦✌🏼
.
Rockin’ my Canadian Tuxedo in the most Canadian of the crops 🙌🏼 Did you know, Canola is the world's only "Made in Canada" crop? It was developed by researchers from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada and the University of Manitoba in the 1970s, using traditional plant breeding techniques.
.
In just a few decades, canola has become one of the world's most important oilseed crops and the most profitable commodity for Canadian farmers. 🇨🇦
.
The plant belongs to the Brassica genus, the botanical family that includes cauliflower and cabbages. The name canola is a contraction of Canada and ola, meaning oil.
.
Though we don’t grow it on our farm, I admire all the beautiful yellow flowers in our neighbours fields every July ❤️🇨🇦

I find comfort in community as I know, it’s most

I find comfort in community as I know, it’s most likely, I am not alone in my struggles.
.
Earlier this week I posed a question over in The Rural Woman Podcast Community Facebook page asking what was one thing that you’d like your non-Ag friends & family to understand about your life. This is something I find myself thinking about more often this time of year. Here’s a few of the answers I got:
.
‘I'm not anti-social, it's just hard to get away from the farm when they ask me to go somewhere.’
.
‘If you want to spend time with me, you’re going to have to come to the farm. I’m not being selfish, it’s just the level of work. Caring for land & animals is nonstop.’
.
‘Although the work is never ending and it can be heartbreaking, that I choose this life because it brings me great joy and fills my soul with gratitude.’
.
These are just a sampling of the things we in Ag want our non-Ag friends & family to know. Our lifestyle is incredibly rewarding but it can also be oh so lonely. We work in acres, not hours. Our paycheques come but once a year and we have one shot to make it work.
.
If you are lucky enough to have a friend with a farm, ranch, or homestead - check on them, would ya? 😉 Chances are they miss you and want to hear from you.
.
What do you want you non-Ag friends and family to know?

The other day I was bringing my Pa some lunch in the rock truck on my way to unload some manure to make compost rows. I chuckled as I handed him his lunch and said ‘I bet you’re glad you paid for me to go to college eh?’
.
He looked me in the eye and said ‘Rudy, you make me proud. You aren’t afraid to try things and that makes me happy’.
.
Though there are times I’m hesitant to try something new on the farm, I always look back to the advice my Pa gave me as a child ‘just giver shit and go’. Though he was talking about 4-wheeling at the time, I’ve applied it more times then I can count over the last four years. 😆
