I got recently got a wonderful e-mail from Karen and Mark Rogers, farmers who kindly advised me on dairy farm practice while I was writing On Brassard’s Farm. They attended my April 12 reading in Montpelier with a sick, four-day-old lamb in the car. Naturally, as guests of honor, I inscribed a book for them. A week later, their “house lamb” has developed a taste for literature!

Hi Dan. My daughter lives in Middletown Springs. One of her dear friends lives on a dairy farm. When I was volunteer teaching at the elementary school, the sweet daughter of the dairy farmer asked good questions. I will check out your book. Is it available as an audiobook? I am an aural person, not to be confused with auric or oral, although I may be those too.
Thanks for saying hello, Diane. I have very much enjoyed the company of the dairy farmers I’ve met. I don’t think most people understand that the job requires a lot of knowledge in many different disciplines! I love the idea of being an auric person — one with an aura. Yes, On Brassard’s Farm is available on audiobook.
