Don't Miss An Opportunity

Don't Miss An Opportunity

Life is full of opportunities you just need to find them and take advantage of them. A past boss and friend of mine, Jay Wilson, had an awesome opportunity a few weeks ago. He received a phone call that Martha Stewart wanted a picture of a Berkshire pig for her show. Jay offered her a picture of one of his pigs, but also offered her the opportunity to have one of his piglets on her show. She took him up on his offer.

Jay, his wife Abby, three children and two piglets were on the way to New York City. Jay and Abby didn’t get much of an opportunity to share their story about agriculture while the show was taping. But they did get to talk with Martha after and invite her out to their farm. So let’s hope she takes them up on their offer.
