The first Meal in the Field delivery brought us to the heart of a true prairie legacy—the Edwards family farm.
Located just north of Nokomis, the Edwards Farm Company is approximately a 5,000-acre grain operation with an 80-head cow-calf herd, proudly run by five generations of dedicated farmers.
This century farm is more than just a piece of land; it’s a living story of family.
Tina and Jeff Edwards were the deserving winners of this week’s meal delivery, with their sons Hudson, Owen, and Mason helping carry on the farming tradition.
The youngest, Hudson, just graduated this spring from Watrous High School marking another milestone for the family.
While seeding is currently 25% complete, the work never stops—and neither does the support.
Jeff’s parents, Lawrence and Donna Edwards, remain a part of the operation, offering wisdom, experience, and helping hands.
As we delivered a hot meal from the BV it was clear that the Edwards farm isn’t just about crops and cattle, it’s about community, hard work, and the pride that comes with it.
Congratulations again to the Edwards family and thank you for letting us share a lovely meal in your wonderful kitchen.
Thanks to our sponsors, FCC, Horizon Fertilizer, South 20 Dodge, and Hergott Farm Equipment.
