Feedin’ Dreams

Welcome to Feedin’ Dreams! Learn where your food comes from as we introduce you the people growing it. And you’ll soon understand how wearing cotton, drinking milk, and eating your steak and potatoes is feeding the dreams of American Agriculturalists.

I hope you’re ready to get your hands dirty. Because we dig up what’s planted the passion for agriculture in the hearts of farmers and ranchers. Then we plow into how lives rooted in agriculture have been cultivated. Finally, we explore what agriculturalists harvest due to perseverance through the hardships that come with pursuing dreams in the agriculture industry.

Homestead Heartache to Homerun

Join us for Episode 1, Homestead Heartache to Homerun. You’ll learn that by eating beef, you’re feeding the dreams of American Cattle Rancher, U.S. Navy Veteran, and Great-Grandfather Andrew Reese Chambers. Reese’s story begins on a humble homestead in Jackson Hole Wyoming. The episode follows Reese from the homestead through sacrifice and service. Throughout the episode, Reese’s family describles his outlook, character, and true passion for cattle ranching. Hear about his time at college, his entrepreneurial endeavors while in the navy, how he raised his six siblings, his tractor selling days, flying all across the country, and everything in between. Then follow Reese through his pursuit and acquisition of his dream cattle ranch. Most importantly, learn who Reese was and what he stood for.

By the end of this episode, we hope you know where that juicy steak or greasy cheeseburger comes from. And we hope you know more about the kind of people producing them.

Fire up your tractor and settle in. Because there’s people that need fed, farming to be done, and plenty of stories to be told.
