St. Francis, Kan. – To start, I need to tell you all something very exciting that I did. I ordered a T-shirt that says “St. Francis, Kansas” on it with a barn and a windmill—basically all of my favorite things on a shirt. Well, Mom...

St. Francis, Kan. – A non-harvest person would say working a 15-hour day must mean you got an extra large amount of work done. Lately, that is not so much the case. The straw is thick and the heads of wheat are plump full of...

St. Francis, Kan. – Road construction, pizza buffets and roadside bathroom breaks; that is what travel days are made of. We were able to finish up for Farmer Sheldon mid-afternoon on Tuesday (which was also Peter’s birthday). He averaged 62 bushels for his 2016 wheat...

St. Francis, Kansas—These last couple days, I have really gotten familiar with the back roads of St. Francis. Our fields range from being 15 miles west of Franny to 20 miles south of Franny. Rather than load up the combine for that distance, we just...
