Rancher blogs of home on the range

Debbie Lyons-Blythe describes the genesis of her blog as a “BOOM” moment. She had been considering ways to tell people about what she does as a Flint Hills rancher. The White City rancher and mother of five was talking with a relative at a family function, and the talk turned to hormones in milk and antibiotics in beef. Lyons-Blythe explained to a concerned relative that no milk is hormone-free and all beef is tested to make sure that there is no antibiotic residue in it. “If she was just one generation away from the farm and has all of these questions and concerns, then how can I expect everybody else to understand it?” Lyons-Blythe asked. “That was my epiphany moment.”Seeing it as her duty, she started her blog “Life on a Kansas Cattle Ranch,” http://kansascattleranch.blogspot.com...more

This lady is certainly active, and consider this idea:

She is now involved in an adopt-a-rancher program with two second-grade classrooms, one in Kansas and one out of state. The students write her letters, and she responds with emails that include math problems and other tasks that they are learning. “I can do most all of the topics that teachers are teaching and help reinforce that, plus give them a little bit of insight into what I do out here. And they love it,” Lyons-Blythe said. “I Skyped one classroom, and that was so much fun. The kids were crazy, excited and had lots of good questions. In everything I do, I’m looking for a way to tell people about what I do.”
