Show Notes
90% of farmers in the U.S., large and small, rely on off-farm income to run their households because the farm revenue just won't. In a larger percentage of these instances that revenue comes from a working spouse. In today's episode, I get to interview Rosie Bosse, who is and was that working spouse and she has an amazing story of entrepreneurship, creativity, and hard work that spans 42 years.
Rosie and her husband farm and raise cattle in Northeast Kansas. Over their 42 year marriage, they have raised four children, who are all out of the house. They continue to farm and raise cattle to this day. In our interview, Rosie stated that the farm paid for itself, but it didn't produce enough income to support the household. Therefore, her role, in addition to the parent, was to come up with a way to create that income to run the home. Tune into this podcast to find out she did that.
