Desiree Carlson and her husband Forrest are reviving a family farm that started under the Homestead Act around 1900. The story of its namesake -- Esther, now emblazoned on Esther's Acres -- reflects the heartiness that is required for a farm to survive.

Why does this matter to YOU? With less than 30% of farms making it from generation to generation, we all need to understand what it takes to make it. We need farms. We need farmland. We need hearty people like Esther and now Desiree to persevere. And they can, if we help.

Don't forget to shop local and if you'd really like to help a farmer -- locally or otherwise -- make sure you nominate one for a grant. Find out more here: https://www.forfarmersmovement.com/farmer-grants
