Wow what a week .. and in case you missed it – Jason and I went north for the last several days to hang out with our Massey Ferguson Team, in Iowa at the 2024 Farm Progress Show. in todays Episode of The Chronicles of Kayla we’re at the @FarmProgressDaily #FPS24 show in Boone Iowa […]

HayHEY! Welcome back to the Farm … I am super excited and gearing up for Farm Progress Show 2024 in Boone, Iowa coming later this month.. We have been keeping up with videos again, but I am wanting to go ahead and share our “Meet & Greet” Schedules since we will be floating between both […]

But it sure felt good to be back in the tractor seat this week – even if my stress levels nearly put Jason through the front windshield while I was trying to learn something NEW.
There’s a quote that has always stuck in my head – –
“You can only grow if you’re willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new.” By Brian Tracy – –

Burnout is a really hard thing to grasp … and I’m not talking about throwing some rubber on a blacktop having a little too much fun. I

I am a VOICE in Ag. I am ONE of a Kind. I am a Female Farmer Sharing HER story. And I am so thankful, for the little reminder that it’s okay to be different and not be like the rest. It’s what makes me Authentically Me.

Sitting down to “write” became my journal after sis was born in 2015… I never “blogged” to make money. Heck I still don’t Vlog to make a living (I BALE HAY for that..) my hope & really only goal has always been to just share my story & return… maybe help one other person going through the same things in life.
Day 66. Monday Morning Reset. 🤍 This morning, I need a reset. Not the dramatic burn it all down and start over kind. Just the kind where you clean the house, wash the laundry, put real food in the refrigerator, drink some water, take a deep breath and remember that you don’t have to be […]

Day 19 of 75 Healing 🤍
Yesterday, I did a lot of the “right” things.
I got dressed. I showed up. I drank my water. I walked. I talked to God. I talked to Keaton. I even got the horses ready for today’s vet appointments.
But I didn’t write. I didn’t make it to the cows.
And somehow, I still went to bed feeling like I hadn’t done enough.
Maybe that’s exactly why I needed 75 Healing instead of another challenge with rules, resets and failure attached to it.
Because healing can’t become another checklist we use to prove we’re failing.

America was built on the dream of freedom. The freedom to work the land. To build something of your own. To plant roots deeper than yourself and leave something better for the next generation. At Wieczorek Farms, we’re not carrying on a century-old family operation. We’re a first-generation farm family building our legacy from the […]

The Hardest Job Is to Live | Chronicles of Kayla I recently read a book dedication that simply said: “For every soul who’s ever watched something precious slip through their fingers and didn’t pretend it didn’t hurt. You are not broken for grieving. You are brave for remembering.” I had to stop reading. Because for […]

Three words no hay farmer really wants to hear this time of year. “There’s Rain Coming” forecasted after you had a 3 day window that turns into 10 days of rain; ranging between 20% chance to full on storm threats. Now don’t get me wrong—we’ve been blessed with rain this spring. The alfalfa is growing, […]

TODAY!! TODAY. Not tomorrow.Not next Monday.Not when life slows down.Not when things hurt a little less. Today. Because the truth is, there will always be chores to do, cattle to feed, hay to make, excuses to lean on, and reasons to wait. This month, I’m choosing something different. I’m choosing routine.I’m choosing movement.I’m choosing healing.I’m […]

🤠 The “Unhinged” Version (because… let’s be honest…… HayHey – I’m Kayla — professionally held together by caffeine, faith, and a little baling twine. I run cows, kids, and a content brand… not always in that order. If you see me crying in a tractor, mind your business — it’s either diesel fumes or character […]

Forever Holding You Up Chronicles of Kayla | Dirt Road Anthem There was a time when holding you up was something I could do with my own two hands. For 15 years… I carried you. And I don’t mean that lightly—I mean physically, fully, without hesitation. From the days when you were small enough to […]

Finding Routine on the Unpaved Road{4.16.26} Feeding livestock is a daily thing.Walking the herd.Checking for any signs of illness.Making notes.Tagging newborns.Picking out the sassy ones.Snagging photos of the ones I’d like to maybe keep down the road.
