D.B.H. or Diameter Breast Height is the way to do it. Love that kids are getting introduced to nature. Way to go, CLC! #getoutside

This project has been a highlight of the year. 🥩🌱 Easy to point at a system that’s not working and harder to build something better. Honor to support @MNFarmersUnion mmbrs vision for building a meat processing system that works better for farmers, workers, and consumers.
