Hello, my name is Jess Weller and I live in Southwest Iowa with my husband (Chase) and three children (Realee-13, Jemma-11, and Bo-9). We live in a rural area and have taken over my husband’s family farm. I have done several professions prior to moving back to the farm but have been farming full-time since 2014. Our farming operation is conventional in many ways with the production of corn and soybeans, hay, and beef cattle. I have also added a few crops that I love to share in the hope a reader would be inspired to try something different in agriculture as well. I am going to walk you through my tree obsession, greenhouse, and our chicken operation.

My family this Christmas season with our annual tree.
