This is kind of a personal story but I thought I still might tell it since it does have to do with the farm. Every year the folks at Hackney's let me put out place mats at their restaurant promoting the upcoming Dairy Breakfast. A couple of years ago my folks came to town to attend the event. This is a big deal since it is hard to get a farmer out of the field. It was the Friday before the event so I thought I would surprise them by taking them to Hackney's for dinner and see how long it would take them to notice the place mats. I have to tell you, it really is something to walk into a dinning room of over 150 settings and seeing all those mats with Wagner Farm on them. It didn't take but a second for Mom and Dad to see the place mats. There was a pride on both our sides that day that I won't soon forget.
If you happen to go to Hackney's thank them for being a friend of the farm!
