Jackson: I had not heard anything about Laura for 10-15 years. We met several times and we usually talked cattle. She was on our farm a couple of times. She grew up on a cattle farm around Lexington. I just looked up what she is onto now. It appears she sold the Laura's Lean beef business in 2009. Moved away from Kentucky. Did not like it and moved back. She is promoting organic farming, hemp cookies, and looking to build a moonshine/whisky plant in Kentucky. WOW quite a change. LOL
Not really She was a marketing person in New York before her Father's health failed. She came back to the family farm and then created the beef business to secure more of the retail dollar. She is a smart person but naïve in some business ways. She wanted to grow the Laura's Lean business but wanted it all done with smaller cattle people like those she grew up with in Central Kentucky. She really did not like finishing cattle in the western states. She would refer to a feeding operation of much size as a factory farm. This difference was the main reason I moved on to other styles of feeding cattle. If I had tried to stay with her program I would not have been able to grow large enough for my sons to come into it with me. Some where deep inside of her she still thought that a few hundred head of cattle was a "lot". Tens times that is a start anymore.

His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
