Tire Tips With Mud And June Dairy Builds Community

View descriptionShare

Today is the beginning of the 95th annual WI State FFA Convention. Aubrey Schlimgen gets a brief update on what officer team members are expecting.  She chats with two of the 11 team members, Julia Lenz and Parker Litterick.

A 60 year old construction worker was told by his doctor to find an "easier" profession.  So he started a vineyard.  He did some internships and went to college to focus on an area he'd never investigated before. Today, 70-year old Roger Lemstrom owns Los Rocosos Vineyard and produces 400-900 cases of wine per year and has recently been honored with top awards for three of his wines.

Muddy fields are frustrating, but not being able to get through them because of poor tires is really frustrating.  Charitee Seebecker talks to Kevin Beyer from Schierl Tire in central Wisconsin.  He says the supply situation has improved since the pandemic, but prices are up 30-40% due to labor costs and the price of rubber.

Wisconsin does June Dairy Month like none other.  Of course it's about educating consumers about what happens on our dairy operations, but it's also about build community within the dairy circle.  Liza Schlintz, Farmer Relations Coordinator for Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin, explains why keeping dairy operations unified, regardless of style or size, is key to the state's continued dairy success.  Paid for by Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin.
