Tucker'd Out

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2401660/fan_mail/new] On a 96 degree evening in May, we caught up with the members of Tucker'd Out.  They are John Trelstad, Lynn Trelstad, and Ryan Haug.  We sat down in the Troll Lounge of Kringen Lodge # 25, Sons of Norway in Fargo, ND, where Tucker'd Out perform the last Thursday of each month.   We talked about their "Feel Good Music" as it has been called but finding a specific genre' is a stretch.  Influenced by artists such as John Prine, Bob Dylan, Arlo Guthrie, Lyle Lovett, and David Grisman, Tucker'd Out play to have fun and share stories.   Our audio that evening left much to be desired due to the "studio" surroundings of the lounge.  But we had fun talking about their history together, some of the road trips, and upcoming events they play for such as Out of the Darkness Community Walk.   We enjoyed our conversation and their music.  You can find video clips and audio files as well as contact information on their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Lynster11 We can be reached at 218-233-1533 or an email to wecare@korsmofuneralservice.com You can also visit us online at www.korsmofuneralservice.com Thank you for listening and have a great day.

Farm in the Dell of the Red River Valley

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2401660/fan_mail/new] Farm in the Dell strives to provide meaningful job opportunities where employees are given fair wages and a steady paycheck – helping to give them confidence and fulfillment. Unfortunately, individuals with disabilities are often overlooked and marginalized by our current society – especially in the workforce. At Farm in the Dell, they offer a non-competitive setting where their Garden Engineers are not valued on their efficiency or productivity – but instead are reminded of their true dignity and identity as beloved children of God. Matthew Larson, Executive Director shares the story behind the organization. Learn how the Farm got started, how it operates today, and how volunteers and community members can become part of this inspiring mission.  We can be reached at 218-233-1533 or an email to wecare@korsmofuneralservice.com You can also visit us online at www.korsmofuneralservice.com Thank you for listening and have a great day.

Homeward Animal Shelter

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2401660/fan_mail/new] What does it really take to care for animals in our community?  In this episode, we visit with the Executive Director of Homeward Animal Shelter, Tasha Haug, an organization dedicated to rescuing, sheltering, protecting, and rehoming dogs and cats right here in our area. We talk about what life inside a shelter actually looks like, how animal welfare has changed in recent years, and why the shelter is planning for a major expansion.  This is not a fundraising pitch. It's an honest conversation about responsibility, planning ahead, and what happens behind the scenes when the community decides that caring for animals matters.   Whether you're a pet owner, an animal lover, or someone interested in how local organizations prepare for the future, this episode offers insight, transparency, and hope. *  www.homewardonline.org * 1201 - 28th Avenue North, Fargo, ND, 58102 * 701-239-0077 *  https://app.givingheartsday.org/ We can be reached at 218-233-1533 or an email to wecare@korsmofuneralservice.com You can also visit us online at www.korsmofuneralservice.com Thank you for listening and have a great day.
