Cows, Chaos, and Rural Summer Stories

Send us a text

In this episode of The Rural Dispatch, it’s just Aly + Smoke catching up on life, work, and everything in between. We kick things off the way most summer conversations in the Midwest do, talking about the weather. From there, we shift gears into family life with a recap of our annual trip to Branson, a streak of Behrens bad luck, and business lately. 

It’s a mix of cows, chaos, and family updates... just a slice of what rural life looks like for us this summer.
