View descriptionShare

This Christmas will be a bit warmer than usual but, that also means it will be safe travels with only a slight chance of ice on the roads according to ag meteorologist Stu Muck.

8 to 12 years. That's how long it takes for a Christmas tree to grow before it is ready for our around two months of holiday celebration. Stephanie Hoff joins the show with Jeff Aissen, the owner of Aissen Tree Farm just south of Luxemburg, to see what it takes to grow these holiday staples.

The holiday season usually brings on a lot of great food for the family to enjoy, and this may include lamb. Kiley Allan chats with Ben Lefeldt, the President of the American Sheep Industry Association, to get an update on what they are doing to make sure their producers are getting the pay they deserve.

Market advisor John Heinberg with Total Farm Marketing joins the show to give an update ahead of the holiday. He says that the beef has seen good demand, but there is still too much milk being produced on the dairy side.
