About This Podcast

Welcome to the Just Say Hay: The Podcast! With new episodes every other Monday, we talk about the things that are important to small farmers. If you're wanting to market your farm, grow your farm, improve the soil health of your farm or ar just interested in agriculture... this is the place for you. We run a small cattle ranch as well as an 850 acre commercial forage farm, but for the past 20 years, my main gig has been as a marketing & business consultant to some of the most recognizable brands and largest companies in the world, but farming is my passion!
