You've seen them from the highway — that strip of grass cutting through the middle of a crop field. What is it? It's a waterway. And what it does benefits everyone downstream — filtering water, slowing runoff, holding soil in place before it reaches the ditch. Paula grows conventional corn and soybeans in Iowa. This is just part of her job raising crops on a modern family farm. #WomenFarmers #CommonGround

We can learn a lot about a field by looking at what's left behind. That lighter color may be a clue about what grew there last year. Check it out. #WomenFarmers #CommonGround

That field isn't empty — it's full of last year's corn. Paula is planting soybeans directly into that residue. Because it protects the soil, holds moisture, and keeps the land healthy for generations. This is one of the ways farm families take care of their land for generations.

Those screens in Paula's planter aren't for show. Paula knows exactly where every seed has gone - field mapped, row by row, inch by inch. This is what modern family farming looks like from the inside. #WomenFarmers #FamilyFarming #CommonGround

Have you seen a farmer using a sprayer? Here’s what it takes to run it right. Measured. Checked. Done with intention every step of the way. Safe, responsible farming isn’t optional—it’s the standard.

Do #RegenerativeBeef and pinkeye prevention go together? Rancher Rachel Gray says yes. For Rachel, regenerative ranching is about creating an environment where both cattle and the land stay healthy together. #BeefMonth findourcommonground.com/rege…

Fun fact: Cattle eat with their eyes open, which can lead to pinkeye. Rachel says raising #RegenerativeBeef includes pinkeye prevention. #BeefMonth

You've seen it from the highway. Or an airplane window. And for just a moment - you wondered. "What's in that field?" We're answering that all year long. First up: field corn in Missouri. And it's just getting started.

This is Paula. She's a a farmer and right now — she's knee-deep in planting season. More than 1 in 3 farmers in the U.S. is a woman. You just don't often see them. We're changing that. #CommonGround #WomenInAg #FamilyFarm #PlantingSeason #WomenFarmers #FindOurCommonGround

You probably pass fields like this all the time — but do you know what's being planted, or why? This April we're bringing you inside planting season. Get your questions ready. #PlantingSeason

For 40 years, farmers have been quietly building some of America's best wildlife habitat. Native grasses planted. Wetlands restored. Waterways buffered. Today, pheasants are thriving in the Midwest. Ducks are nesting in the northern plains. White-tailed deer populations are booming. 26 million acres — an area larger than the state of Kentucky — have been voluntarily set aside by American farm families to do exactly this. For farmers, #EarthDay spans the entire calendar. Source: USDA Farm Service Agency; Ducks Unlimited

Most people have never met the person who grew their food. Right now, farm families across the country are heading out before sunrise — planting the crops that will fill grocery shelves this fall. 95% of U.S. farms are family-owned. This is their busiest season. Come take a look.

Wishing you and yours a fantastic holiday season! #HappyHolidays

Flies aren’t just annoying 🪰… horn flies can stop cows from eating! No grazing = no rumen activity = digestive trouble. That’s why managing flies is key to keeping herds healthy. Learn how rancher Rachel Gray combats cattle flies without sacrificing the good bugs or overall health of the herd. #cattle #AnimalCare #CattleFlies

Ick alert! Cattle flies literally bite cattle to eat their blood, putting the herd at risk for health issues. When ranchers step in to protect their animals, it's essential for providing healthy beef for a healthier America.

Healthy crops start with healthy soil. As soon as the seed goes in the ground, the real work begins 💪 Managing soil health, pests and weeds to give every plant the best chance to thrive. Minnesota farmer Angela Guentzel knows it all starts from the ground up. 🌽⬆️ #WorldSoilDay

For Rachel Gray, ranching is about more than raising cattle — it’s about protecting the environment and producing great beef for people. As owner of Little Timber Farms, she gets to do both every day, always with the future of regenerative beef in mind. #RegenerativeBeef
