In the Moment
Next gray, chilly morning, while you're having breakfast in your warm home...remember farmers like the Krusenbaums, who are out in the barns in minus 0 degree weather....making sure there's butter for your toast, cream for your coffee, and milk for your cereal. Meanwhile, enjoy the music of Ariane Lydon in this Heart of Farming feature. Peace, Carrie
