A Year at Continuum Ag
Well, where do I start? After almost one year at Continuum Ag, my journey has led me back home, to get away from the ice-cold Iowa winter to a rather hot South Africa! I can’t complain about wearing shorts and a t-shirt! During my time at Continuum, it’s safe to say that I received a […]

From the Road: Arkansas Blog
I recently made the long trip down to Arkansas for my first soil sampling trip for Continuum Ag.
