Common Ground: A Novel Event with Jerry Apps

Search for common ground with celebrated rural storyteller @JerryApps as he shares stories of issues farming communities face in his award-winning Ames County Novel Series. Well-known for his farm-life memoirs and agricultural histories, Apps weaves real-life rural and environmental issues into his novel series. Drawing from his own experiences as a farm boy and county extension agent, fact and fiction come together to set the stage in each novel, including in the newest, "Seeds of Suspicion". In "Seeds of Suspicion", a County Extension Agent searches for solutions between industrialized mega farms and family-run farms after a rock crashes into a public meeting and tears open simmering unrest.
