This Week’s Story: The Door Opened, I Ran

Hello, my name is Wesley Littleton. My wife Maddy and I are transitioning into ownership of the Alderspring beef distribution. I know that sentence alone can sound a bit intimidating—especially for those of you who have been part of this community for 20+ years. Because of that, I believe it’s incredibly important that our relationship moving forward is built on transparency, honesty, and connection…..

Another angle of that particularly beautiful sunset. It was 360 degrees that night, painterly colors adorning the whole sky over the valley. -Melanie

Jed and I had to take a trip down to Idaho Falls to run some errands and pick up a leaf spring for the feed trailer. On our way across the Snake River Plains, we encountered a wall. Of dust, that is. Topsoil blowing off newly plowed fields, carried aloft by gale force spring winds. It’s kind of crazy to see farmers’ livelihood, the very soil beneath their feet, literal dust in the wind. It was a good reminder that there’s a certain lack of resilience in the mono crop agriculture common in this part of the state. -Melanie

Although the days are sometimes still cold and windy and winter remains firmly entrenched in the high country, spring is well on its way and there’s signs of its approach every day. It’s been a very mild winter, but regardless we still yearn a little bit for the long warm days of summer, and these blooms are a reminder that it’ll be here before we know it. -Melanie
