Yellowstone ending is sad, real life is even sadder….support your farmers markets.
Recently, I overheard three people discussing the ending of Yellowstone.
After about 45 minutes they said how sad it was when they showed the empty barn.
One lady said it brought her to tears; one of the men agreed....said even he almost cried.
And it bothered the dickens out of me.
At this point, I interrupted their conversation and said if you thought the ending of a made up TV show that made millions of dollars was sad, you should see it happen in real life.
Everyday, sadly, there is a family that loads the last cow on a trailer, they close the barn door for the last time, they sell dirt that has been in their family for generations all because they can't afford to do it anymore.
They can't afford to feed their family anymore, they can't afford to feed America anymore.
If the Yellowstone fairytale made you sad, take a good look at farmers and ranchers. I'm not a rancher nor am I any longer a farmer, but I know plenty.
Sadly I also know way to many FORMER farmers and ranchers and they never made millions not even close to it.
So, let's all pitch in and help our farmers and ranchers whenever, and however possible by buying direct, and/or attending farmers markets. Many now have websites wereby you can buy direct and have farm fresh food delivered to your door.
