Farmers are Known for Resiliency — Even in the Hardest of Times
In this mini documentary about Kyle Thompson, who is a fifth generation dairy farmer from Barneveld, Wis., learn about the tragic story of how he lost part of his leg in a silo auger accident. This short film documents the events of his rescue, subsequent medical care and adaptation to life as a farmer and father of 4 with a prosthetic leg. Kyle's ability to stay positive and willingness to move forward past this accident is an inspiring story for all no-tillers and farmers of any kind.
