🍻Beer and jerky. Might be two of my favorite applications of the co-op business model!

Thanks to Mission West Community Development Partners, Glacier Processing Cooperative and Ronan Cooperative Brewery for hosting us yesterday. Great tours, great ideas to bring back home!

(The brewery stop was unplanned. But they had beer 🤷.)

👏The House passed year-round E15 last night in a BIG bipartisan vote. Thank you to Congresswoman Julie Fedorchak for working across the aisle to get this thing done! The bill now heads to the Senate, where we’ll keep stressing the importance of growing strong, stable domestic demand for the commodities we produce!
