On the unforgiving plains of southeastern Wyoming sits the Jessen Wheat Company. Eleven miles north of Pine Bluffs, the farm survives in a dry, windy and oftentimes harsh and unpredictable climate, making farming difficult even by conventional standards.
The Jessens farm somewhat differently than the majority of farmers in Laramie County, since being certified organic, regenerative and reduced till makes them unique.
On Wyoming Watch, WTE photographer Mile Gladstein shares his experience meeting with and covering the Jessens over the past eight months.
Stick around until the end for a roundup of upcoming events in the area and a recap of the top stories from the WTE newsroom over the past week.
