About Me

Former pro chislic judge, current farm blogger and (hopeful) future author, Heather Benson's official day job is as the Social Media Manager for her home state's PBS/NPR member station, South Dakota Public Broadcasting, ensuring South Dakota’s stories reach well beyond our borders. Originally from Menno, SD and currently residing with her husband and daughter on a small farm in Clay County, her official night job is shepherding her herd of Icelandic sheep, tending (an undisclosed number) of chickens and trying to convince her demented turkey Lloyd that he cannot, in fact, marry his favorite basketball. Her farm stories can be followed at dalarnafarm.com
