LISTENING TO FARMERS: Doris Mold wants Wisconsin farmers to contact her to share their farm transition stories as part of the Rural Resiliency Project funded by the UW-Eau Claire Foundation. Wisconsin farmers are encouraged to share their stories of transitioning to a different way of farming or exiting farming.
If you are a Wisconsin farmer who has experienced a major transition on your farm, Doris Mold would like to talk to you. Maybe you have transitioned the farm to the next generation or decided to share milking facilities with another farmer. Or you sold your cows and are now crop farming and working at Fleet Farm or raising dairy beef. Or maybe you have moved to value-added production or made some other farm transition, including exiting farming completely.

John Menard, the billionaire owner of the Menard’s home improvement chain.
It was was called a “doctorate of humane letters,” but there are some who would not necessarily think of Menard as a humanitarian. A successful businessman, yes: Menard’s is one of the biggest home improvement chains in the nation, with 325 stores and 41 manufacturing facilities located in 14 Midwestern states, and an advertising jingle, “Save big money at Menard’s,” we all probably know by heart.
