Today on the show, we talk about integrating family and children with the farm and ranch business. 6th generational farmer and rancher Chelsey Erdmann gives us her take on incorporating these family dynamics into everyday life on their place in east central North Dakota.

Chelsey’s family raises commercial cattle from birth to finish, along with corn, soybeans, pinto beans, seed oats; plus 3 kids while her husband operates a fencing supply company with used oil field material. 

Chelsey enjoys the business and cattle side of the operation as well as giving a glimpse of their life to others through social media. Join the club on Instagram to partake in the daily tasks & frequent discussions.

This family has been playing Hokey Pokey for generations and it was a tradition worthy of sharing. Now, Chelsey offers Ag Memory Books on ohthatschelsey.com As an easy way to record a few details of each year to create a heirloom for the operation.
