...was able to get Temple Grandin (above) to visit Wagner Farm in Glenview this week:
Wearing her trademark western shirt and jeans, Grandin came to Wagner Farm to explain how to keep animals calm by observing how they react to their environment, from the swish of their tail to the whites of their eyes.
"I think it's wonderful that kids can get out here and see farm animals, see a cow getting milked. We've got kids today that think milk comes out of a factory. We've got kids that don't know that beef cattle normally live out on the range," Grandin said afterward. "The 4-H kids are out here raising their lambs and their pigs, and I think that's a good thing."
