“Been farming long?”: Growing up on the farm, with Mosey and Justin Ralph

Back to Your Roots

Ever wonder what it's like to grow up on a farm, toiling the soil and reaping the rewards of a hard day's work? Today, we pull back the barn doors and immerse ourselves in the life of 10-year-old Mosey Ralph, an extraordinary farm kid with an abundance of tales to tell. Mosey's world is one filled with chicken barns, cornfields, and heavy machinery, and he's not shy about sharing the joys and burdens of being the only boy in a family of girls on this bustling farm.
Step into the world of the Ralph family, where farming isn't just an occupation, it's a legacy. As Mosey's father reflects on the pride of seeing his son ready to take up the mantle, we explore the tireless work ethic and unwavering determination that are the backbone of this family business. From dealing with unforgiving terrain to nurturing dreams of further education, join us as we traverse the challenging yet rewarding landscape of farm life through Mosey's eyes.
But farming is not just about crops and equipment; it's also about community and faith. We learn from Mosey's family about the crucial bonds formed with agricultural lenders and the invaluable support they've received. Discover how faith plays a pivotal role in their lives and how the farming community rallies together in times of adversity. Whether it's the shared hardship of a bad harvest or the shared joy of a good one, it's these relationships that hold the farming world together. So, sit back, relax, and join us on this journey through the highs, the lows, and the everyday miracles of life on the Ralph family farm.
