In this episode, I sat down with Willie Beeler of Beeler Lawn & Landscape, based in Collins, IA (pop 483). He's a former college football player, turned PE teacher, turning landscaper. He also happens to my husband.

Meet your host, Shelby Smith. Find out how I wound up living in a tiny Iowa town with less than 500 people.

I am excited to talk to other builders and find out what they're doing to thrive in small towns.

After talking about it for months, I am FINALLY starting my podcast about building things in small towns.

I am super excited to talk to entrepreneurs, community leaders, policy makers and more to find out what's being built in small towns.

Do you know of someone building something in a small town?! Please let me know!
