Belinda shared their personal account of why they belong to Jefferson County Farm Bureau.
“My husband, Danny, and I have been farming for almost 47 years. We moved to the farm in 1976, two months after we were married. We raised four children, had countless number of dogs, and primarily focused on beef cattle. We named our farm The Golden Promise Farm because Danny and I were both raised in the Nazarene church. We always tried, and still try, to abide by that rule, ‘Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.’
“We joined Farm Bureau because we wanted to support our livelihood and our beliefs that farming is the best kind of life. I know it is not for everyone, and sometimes I question if it is for me, but the benefits of living on a farm outweigh the negatives ten-fold. I ran for a trustee-at-large position and am now serving on the Farm Bureau board for Jefferson County. It is very enlightening to hear about new programs, the involvement we have in the community, and innovative farmers who choose to try the untried. Their successes make farming look inviting and inspire others to join our lifestyle.
“The work ethic farmers have amazes me, and the insurmountable problems they run into on a daily basis make me think that farmers are a breed chosen by God to do the impossible when it seems hopeless. Farmers never give up. I want to be a part of that, and I want to make sure farmers are always seen in a positive light. Farmers are the backbone of the country and the world. I am proud to be a farm wife and a Farm Bureau member.”
