Your words are powerful. 🌿 They stay with me as I think about my beloved Iowa. I agree with another comment here that this should be in every Iowa newspaper.

This is so well done, Jen! Gosh, detailing all the histories of these companies and weaving it all together - so important. Agreed this should be in every newspaper, not just in Iowa.
