hosted the 2016 Stearns County Breakfast on the Farm at their 280-cow dairy
near St. Augusta. The family recently
installed two robotic milking systems.
At first we didnt know if we
should host the breakfast, Janski said.
Then we realized its a great opportunity to see what a dairy farm looks like
and how it operates for many people
who dont know.
Throughout the morning, an estimated 3,000 visitors from across
Stearns County attended the event,
nearly 2,400 of which also enjoyed a
hot breakfast provided by the Kimball
Lions Club.
Unfortunately it did rain, which
we think deterred attendance a bit,
said Tara Meyer, Stearns County
Breakfast on the Farm Planning Committee member.
Despite the inclement weather,
families and couples young and old
were elated to spend their Saturday

attended the Stearns County Breakfast on the Farm with his dad, Chris.

buildings.
We did that until people showed up, which came quickly, Janski said.
Fortunately, the effort in preparing for the breakfast was duly noted.
Many times the public isnt aware of the hard work farmers do to produce
nutritious food, said Brad Wenz, who was attending with his wife and granddaughter. Its hard work and a great investment, and we as consumers need to
recognize that and become more informed of where our food comes from.
Each year, the Stearns County Breakfast on the Farm aims to expose the lifestyle of dairy farming to community members across the county. This year, Janski
felt they accomplished that goal.
Our main interest was to educate those who are removed from agriculture,
he said.
Tour guides and industry professionals provided information about the dayto-day life on the farm and how a wholesome product is produced.
Theres nothing more valuable than a hands-on experience teaching people
about their food, Meyer said.
The 2017 breakfast will be held at Kuechle Dairy in Watkins on the first Saturday of June.

Tvrdiks embrace
Aging in Place
concept
By JENNIFER COYNE
Staff Writer
ALEXANDRIA With an
unsteady balance and poorer eyesight,
among other signs of aging, many
individuals rely on assisted living or
nursing homes to maintain a satisfying
lifestyle.
With the creative assistance of
Richard Hardine, Norm and Sue
Tvrdik have found an alternative to the
common solutions of aging.
In January, the Alexandria couple
moved into their all-accessible home
near Turtle Lake on the property that
Sues great-grandparents homesteaded.
We saw both of our parents
struggle to move around their
farmhouses and we knew we needed
something different, Sue said. We
wanted to enjoy what we have as long
as we can.
The Tvrdiks are a part of a growing
movement called Aging in Place,
where individuals prepare to live the
remainder of their lives at the residence
they feel most familiar in home by
incorporating features that will become
beneficial as health and mobility fades.
Were a part of a society where
children leave the nest and family is
spread out, but this is where the parents
grew up and have lived for a lifetime,
said Hardine, who suffers from post
polio syndrome (PPS) and kick-started
Norm and Sue Tvrdik embrace the idea of Aging in Place. The couple built a home near Alexandria that accommodates their
needs today and will meet their needs in the future as they become older.

The root of the wild parsnip resembles a carrot, but Bob Dunning recommends they not be eaten. One way to eliminate the plant
is to cut it off about one to two inches below the ground level.

ST. JOSEPH The hosta plant is
perfect for outdoor displays.
They are a decorative plant and
a good outdoor plant, said Elizabeth
Tomsche of Woodland Hostas, located
near St. Johns University. I started dividing hostas in 2010 and started selling them in 2011.
Tomsches interest in hostas came
at the encouragement of her father,
Dave Reisinger, who grew up on the
land Elisabeth Tomsche and her husband, Pete, now own. Her dad grew
hostas here for years.

Put all ingredients in mixing bowl and beat with electric mixer on
high. Beat until stiff peaks form. Serve over angel food or white cake.
Refrigerate.
I always knew my mom (Marge Anderson) was an amazing cook. She
shared many recipes with me and lots of other people. Most of her
recipes had stories behind them. When my dad (Floyd Anderson) was
young, his mother would send the children out to pick wild raspberries. One of his favorites was Raspberry Whip. Absolutely delicious
over angel food cake. He always got this for his birthday.

1 1/2 cups milk
2 packages 34 ounces instant

Beat with electric mixer on low until well mixed. Refrigerate 2-3
hours. Top with 8 ounces Cool Whip or whipped cream, and three
frozen and chopped Heath bars. This is a great summer treat.

Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, mix. Add dry ingredients and beat
together. Add sour cream and bananas and chocolate chips. Mix well.
Line muffin cups with liners. Fill 2/3 full and sprinkle with cinnamon
and sugar. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Makes 12 jumbo muffins. This is my favorite treat to share. My granddaughter helped to
create these, so they are special to me.

New Holland skid steer and compact track loaders provide you with excellent
visibilityan important advantage that allows you to work more condently and
quickly to improve your overall efciency.
A lower door threshold allows for better
sightlines to the bucket cutting edge and to
the trench.
The see-through area on the cab roof provides
a clear view to the bucket at full height.
Rear visibility is among the best in the industry
due to a large window, low engine hood and no
rear frame towers.
