Beyond The Crops

Harvest, Hogs & Hindsight: A Farm Couple’s Recap (Ep 89)


Listen Later

We’re bringing our husbands back to the podcast for a no-holds-barred conversation about the highs, lows, and lessons of the 2024 farming season. From harvest takeaways to hard-earned wisdom, we’re diving into what worked, what didn’t, and what we’re changing for next year.

We also reflect on the challenges and wins of raising livestock, share our personal and farm goals for 2025, and discuss the outlook for agriculture in the coming years. Plus, hear our thoughts on how potential policy changes could impact family farms.

In This Episode, We Cover:
🌽 Harvest Recap: The biggest lessons learned from 2024
🚜 What’s Changing: What we’ll do differently next year (and what we won’t repeat!)
🐖 Hog Butcher Recap: What we learned from this year’s process
🎯 2025 Goals: One new thing to try on the farm + personal growth goals
📉 Ag Outlook: What’s ahead for farmers in the coming years
🇺🇸 Policy & Agriculture: Thoughts on the new administration’s potential impact on farming

Join us for an honest and lighthearted discussion about life on the farm, learning from experience, and preparing for the future.
