Teaching us all about Fayette County is Rod Marlatt & Mallory (Marlatt) Hanson. Rod is currently the executive director for Fayette County Conservation. He’s been in his role 36 years and is a go-to guy for all things Fayette County. Mallory is the director of economic development and tourism for Fayette County, as well as the director of the turkey river recreational corridor. 

Together they share stories about their time in Northeast Iowa, things to do, see and even historical facts about Gilbertson Conservation Education Area & the Mavis and Conner Dummermuth Historical Building... not to mention a few fun "near death" experiences for Rod as he was growing up. 

"Be happy where you are at, but don't be content to stay there."
