  • February 2nd was a super warm day, like 40 degrees. We've had a super snowy winter and with the combination of snow and warmth it took our 30 year old shed down! Watch Alan, his Dad, and friend Conner work fast to get our equipment out before the rest of the shed collapses!!!

    Sorry Allan and Jennifer for the loss of your machine shed. What a great example of how a small town community pulls together. God is awesome as he shield all of you from tragedy.
    Prayers for you and your family.

    I have a soft spot in my heart for small farmers. Hard working people feeding the country. In my life I was fortunate to grow up having jobs working for good people like you and benefited from life lessons and good friendships. You keep it in a good perspective. You dont curse your luck, you count your blessings. Hope you all recover well. You deserve good fortune.

    Did you not have insurance to cover this building and the damage to the equipment? Even my house insurance includes some coverage for outbuildings and when we were dairy farming the policy we had covered the farm buildings. I'm sure it will be expensive to replace.

    You might try checking on the internet for a salvage equipment dealer in your area. For the conveyor. Heck you might be able to use one of a different brand of picker and make it work. Just a thought.

      Trinity Dairy We have two of the same style sheds on our prairie homestead in Kansas. Kansas doesn’t get the amount of snow that you get in Minnesota, just the winds and more tornadoes but there was 2 large barns lost to tornadoes years before we bought the place.
