So early on each of us daughters had specific jobs on the farm, especially during the busy time of harvest season. Lois was foreman and drove the wheat trucks. Ruthie drove the combine, Debbie managed the unloading area and drove wheat trucks. After college and graduate school the Four Sisters saw that the economics of farming were changing. There was a quickly changing agricultural climate, expanding world wide markets, and the Internet.
Farmers can no longer depend on the local elevator as their only market.
We must try to market our products nation wide, and use consumer friendly packaging. We need to diversify and adapt. Four Sisters Grain has sprouted to try and meet these needs. In a quickly changing world, flexibility is the key to keeping family farms in the family. With the Internet, we will have the flexibility we need to meet your demand for reasonably priced, home grown, quality products.
