Today at Isbell Farms we celebrate this man! The OG the man, the myth, the legend!
When I say that this man has shaped the face of farming, it’s completely true. He has done more for this industry than anyone I know. There are things possible today that never would have been without his insight and ingenuity.
But, if you asked him, it wouldn’t be his success in farming that he’s most proud of, but yet his family, friends and all those who love him like we do!
Join us today in celebrating 70 years of Chris! #isbellfarms #happybirthday
We count ELEVEN bald eagles in our field today! #isbellfarms
When you think about how your food gets to the table, do you even think about grain bins? Most of us don’t. Farm to table is a long road. This rice goes through planting, growing, harvesting, storage, hauling, milling, packaging, to the store shelf and finally to your house… it’s a long road. There are many steps, by many people, working hard behind the scenes to get that food to your plate.
There’s much more to farming than meets the eye.
Pray for us! 😂 it’s hot in these grain bins! 🌾🌾#isbellfarms #rice #arkansas #drinkrice

It is with great sadness and a flood of tears that we share the news that our beloved farm pup, Clover, passed away last night. He was the sweetest boy and we feel incredibly lucky to have had him in our lives for the time we did. You will be deeply missed, Clover. 🍀 🐾🌈 #isbellfarms #farmdog #rescuedog #clover

7 years ago today, Judy, (mom) had open heart surgery. We didn’t see it coming. It was a scary time but she did amazing! She was brave! She’s still brave and today we celebrate her heart birthday! We love you! ❤️❤️❤️We also want to take this opportunity to remind you to get your heart checked! Get the tests done, see the doctor! #isbellfarms #heart #openheartsurgery #openheart
WARNING… vulnerable, honest, post alert.
Some days this is what farming looks like.
After spending time, money and energy planting a crop, and then watching torrential rains come to potentially wash it all away… after staying awake all night long watching the weather, rainfall accumulation, severe threats… then leaving early in the morning to check the water levels, the tractor fuel, the pumps… then coming home to watch the radar again.
Jeremy is just one of many farmers doing that today. Our entire crew is feeling the weight of this weather event. Our neighbors are watching it too. We have no idea what the next days will look like as the waters rise.
Our entire state is suffering today. People’s homes have been damaged, flooding is all over the state… prayers today for everyone struggling. This is hard.
