Episode 065: Alyson Dorr of The Red Barn
This week we’re in Columbia Falls, Montana (pop. 4,710) with Alyson Dorr of The Red Barn. Alyson is a fourth generation farmer who is helping bring up the next generation of family farm kids. She and her husband Casey share their little slice of heaven through The Red Barn, their luxury loft vacation rental, their farm-grown peppermint oil, raw honey, and pastured, all-natural pork. And she’s telling us all about it on today’s podcast.
You’ll love hearing about the amazing legacy that Alyson and her family get to carry on and what they’re doing to preserve that. She also has a great take on 4-H livestock and land stewardship. Alyson is being featured in the Where Women Cook Holiday magazine, which will be on news stands October 1. Be sure to go grab a copy and check out the links below. We’ll also be featuring stories of rural revival on the blog this week, so go to ruralrevival.co to follow along.
