Jessica and Todd Slusher of Three Hill Farm first attended Third

Thursday in 2017, they also began attending the Small Farm

Conferences. They implemented numerous NRCS EQIP projects,

received a Small-Scale Farm Grant, received numerous assistance from

the Franklin County Extension, hosted pre-and post-pandemic programs

for youth, including an African American youth group from Tennessee.

They have developed waterways, fenced off highly erodible areas,

developed a roadside organic vegetable and egg market, produce goats,

and are working with the local Chamber of Commerce to develop an

equine tourism program that will include a bed-and-breakfast on their

farm, plus trailriding, and riding lessons. The farm has gone from a totally

run down house and barn, to a renovated house and barn, plus fencing,

and other structures. They credit their work with KSU for their success

and encouragement.
