It’s almost that time of year when you can find fresh ears of Wisconsin sweet corn at farm stands, farmers markets, or right on the farm. Welcome back to the podcast series where we introduce you to specialty crops across the state and the growers who make it all happen! Today we’re heading to Monroe, where Brian and Heidi Kent run Heidi’s Happy Acres. Each is a fourth-generation farmer – one growing up with hogs and cash crops, and the other in dairy farming. Today, together, they raise sweet corn, pumpkins, and family fun. Brian explains how Heidi’s Happy Acres was born out of the pandemic. Brian thanks the Wisconsin Agricultural Tourism Association for the assistance in starting and growing an on-farm destination. WATA is a valuable resource for anyone looking to add revenue to the farm through ag tourism. This podcast series is brought to you by Specialty Crop Block Grant 23-10.
