Entreprenural Tendrils

DIY’ers at Heart. This fall was spent building our second “hoop house” for my wife’s farm business. Finished it just before the snow started!

Those of you who subscribe or follow our blog know that HSC did not start because of a “grand design” of becoming an entrepreneur. Quite the opposite! HSC because of a desire to help in the aftermath of an industrial accident and continued largely due to the serendipity of finding out that we had a lot to offer to organizations.

In fact, our entrepreneurial path was started, and continued, due to the support of, and learning from, others who were, themselves more prone to the avant guard. So, I find it interesting to find that others in my immediate circle either have always had, or have been encouraged to, the interest in using their gifts in entrepreneurial endeavors.

To encourage your own growth toward entrepreneurial adventure, here are a couple examples of what those in my circle are doing. Both, mind you, from a small village of about 2,000 in rural Nebraska. Enjoy!!

My favorite small farmer (my wife) is offering a give away! Amy grows heirloom tomatoes, etible flowers, and “veg” to sell to local chefs. She also sells a few things (cookbooks, and hand made rolling pins) on line. Right now she is running a “flash give away” of her Coon Creek Herbs. Coon Creek Herbs Give Away!

Here it is . . . Coon Creek Herbs.



Andrew, our graphic designer, continues his game development with the release of The Cloud Dungeon, 2nd Edition and his new Fantas/Tragedy video game: Thistledown. The first, being a follow up to his original paper role-playing game chosen that launched as a successful Kickstarter project and that was chosen as a “Staff Pick” by Kickstarter.



Andrew also approached us with a tantalizing idea . . . and if you are a fan of the hilarious audio program “Cabin Pressure” and the John Finnemore’s Souvenir Programme . . . watch for an update later in 2020.

So, dream big, people! Follow your passions. Use your gifts. Create and thrive. Test the limits of the possible and find that what success is not elusive but probable.
