It’s no secret that farmers and others in agriculture are some of the biggest, most dedicated sports fans around.

Step beyond your comfort zone
August 19th, 2011
Just over a year ago I started out on a new journey into the unknown universe called “Social Media”. Through previous employment, I had some experience with traditional media and enjoyed it. However, the whole social media craze was unknown to me. I knew some people who spent a lot of time on a platform
