I’m Erik Younggren, a fourth-generation wheat farmer from Hallock, Minn. I work with two of my cousins to run our family’s farm. I’m also the second vice president of the National Association of Wheat Growers and a husband and soon-to-be father.
I decided to start this blog to show anyone who is interested what really happens on a modern American farm, straight from the fields. So stay tuned!
Keep up the great work Erik! Love the blog!

I just caught your Blog site from the RRV Farm Network. I look forward to following your travels and activities on the farm. I miss the “Homeland” in Hallock, MN and enjoy hearing how farming is going!
Congratulations – on being a Dad!
Love it, Erik. So glad to know you’re blogging as it’s both helpful to us rural pastors who grew up in urban areas, but also for folks in general to know the awesome work farmers do for us. Keep it up — all of it
I just discovered this blog, and it’s amazing. As a city dweller (or at least a big town dweller), I’ve always wondered what life was like at the other end of the supermarket purchase. Please keep up the great work – it is very much appreciated!
Found your blog via a NAWG post on Facebook. Looking forward to reading more. Thanks for sharing with the world what daily life is like for America’s farmers!
