Description
I talk to people who own, manage, operate, and work for commercial grain businesses in North America. There are a lot of interesting stories out there and I want to hear them.

Reverse
Managing a cooperative, riding a Harley, traveling with family, and finding work that keeps you satisfied for 17 years and beyond.
Growing up on the farm (and failing to escape), raising a strong family, an accidental blind date that went pretty well, building a strong team, and baking an unreasonable quantity of pies.
Growing up in the grain business, being a girl dad (and fun grandpa in waiting), being selected for the Iowa softball umpire Hall of Fame, community service, loving the grain elevator business, and learning basis trading from a barefoot man and a juggler.
Growing up in agriculture, working at one place your whole life, dumping pickup trucks at the elevator, marrying the first girl you ever dated, and providing quality service to everyone you deal with.
A man of two nations (and the joy of paying taxes to both), being trilingual in English, building businesses, doing the hard stuff, the joy of driving long distances, playing shinny, and why the prairie is the most underrated vacation destination.
Bagpipes, curling, the syrup business, a syrup heist, limited edition grain meme t-shirts, and why it seems like every Ontario farmer has a Twitter account. Oh, and some stuff about the grain business too.
Basis trader, PhD, Cheerleader, Mayor, Near Infrared Spectroscopist, and Gate Salesman
Running a grain business with 5 siblings, trusting software (or not), and becoming a force in your marketplace.
From an archery shop to the farm, competing for a spot on the U.S. Olympic team, living in the boss's basement, and a distaste for air travel.
Population: 2, a 13-layer cake, working on the railroad, and growing up in the grain business.
