More Than a Number: The Reality of Farm Safety

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2532871/fan_mail/new] Agriculture consistently ranks as one of the most dangerous industries in the country, but on the farm, those stats often feel like they apply to "someone else." This week, we’re looking at the grim data behind farm accidents and why they keep happening. Tyler calls in to play devil’s advocate, walking us through the safety guards he’s removed to save time and make his life "easier." We’re having a blunt conversation about the cost of a few saved minutes and why the "it won't happen to me" mindset is the most dangerous tool on the farm.  Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2532871/support]

All the “Labels” & Supporting the Farm Without Sinking Yourself

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2532871/fan_mail/new] How much of your own life are you expected to set aside to absorb the stress of the farm? In this episode, we’re getting honest about the "backburner" life. We talk about the pressure to drop your own projects, career, or sanity the second things get heavy in the field, and how to find the line between being a supportive partner and completely burning out. We also look at the labels we’re seeing everywhere lately—Crunchy, Silky, and Granola—and whether trying to fit into these boxes makes our lives easier or just adds more weight to an already full plate.
