What's For Dinner?

Kristi Bahrenberg Janzen Kristi Bahrenberg Janzen is tonight's guest. She is a journalist who married into a Mennonite family that faces the need, faced by many farm families today, to execute a "farm transition" as the generation now farming looks at retirement. Her husband's family own valuable farm buildings, livestock and land in Kansas. Hoping a relative will eventually come forward to farm it, they have already worked for a decade planning for the farm to flourish financially and stay in family hands until then. Karen describes how the family shaped their participative process, and we speculate about whether Mennonite values have facilitated this.
