Thank You!

I have a couple of friends who posted links to my blog. I would like to thank them for helping spread the word on the possible factory farm siting in our county in Wisconsin. So Angie (who also owns a farm in Southwestern Wisconsin) and Edain (who supports us all the way from Canada) and all of you who signed the petition, a huge THANK YOU!!! Your friendships are making this a lot easier on us. What a great feeling of joy when that helpless feeling starts to creep in.

I definitely went there and signed. I was talking with my sister about this issue just today.

I hope we can win this - for all of SW Wisc!

Honestly though, my heart just goes out to you. I can't imagine the emotions that you guys are feeling. This has the potential to ruin your dream.

I will help you fight this.

p.s. I just sent an email to my friends (some friends which also own property in Grant Co.) and family and asked them to sign the petition.

Just found your blog and rread about the petition...off to sign it now. Coming from a small farming community, I hear you loud and clear! The conglomerates that dot the countryside not only where you are, but everywhere are making it a huge problem! We have tons of cattle feedlots in this area and it makes me sick to my stomach to drive by. I'll be tuning back in for more!!
