The two sat in their yard swing on a pleasant Sunday afternoon Aug. 21, the 49th anniversary of the day they met. That was in 1973, and Randy was a farm boy who had gone to school in Mankato to become a math teacher. He also belonged to a well-established Christian ministry called The Navigators. Wendy grew up in northern Wisconsin and had moved to Oshkosh where she was attending school. “We were starting a new ministry,” she said. “Our Navigator representative was recruiting for the men’s ministry and Randy was invited to come.”
The house is a good example of the succession of generations. From the low side of the hill where it rests, it begins with the oldest portion built in the 1800s by John and Anna with a foundation of laid-up limestone. Two generations later, Ernest and Selma made changes. “In 1941, my grandfather tore off the summer kitchen and dug a basement and built the two-story east-west addition,” Randy said. “We added the west end in 1994, so all the generations are recorded in the foundations of this house.”He pointed to the barn down the hill with sections that were built by his great-great-grandfather and, later, his grandfather. A tour of the now-empty dairy barn revealed more of the story. Originally built in the 1800s with timber from clearing the land, some of those hand-hewn timbers can still be seen inside. An addition with a hip roof was built in 1926 by his grandfather, Ernest, and in 1990, Randy remodeled the barn.

Later, after four years in Chicago, Randy as a teacher and Wendy working in downtown Chicago in the Sears Tower, they decided it was time to come home. They had been married two years by perchFromthen.theirontheswingAug.21,theycould look over the beautiful place on a hillside they have called home for so long now.

On one of the farm’s traditional red buildings, a large sign depicts the farm’s Grabau lineage: John and Anna 1856-1916; Dan and Emma 1916-1927; Ernest and Selma 1927-1952; Norman and Judy 1952-1989; Randy and Wendy 198920… Ryan, Crystal, Deena, Bretta are listed at the end, Randy and Wendy’s four Randychildren.told the story of his great-great-grandparents, John and Anna, coming from West Prussia near Gdansk in what is now Poland and settling on the farm in 1856, when Minnesota was still a territory.

SPRING VALLEY – Randy and Wendy Grabau farm east of Spring Valley, where generations of Grabaus before them have worked the land. For the Grabaus, the life they share on the farm is, more than anything else, a heritage. When they purchased the farm in the 1980s from Randy’s parents, they even chose to name it after their philosophy: Heritage Farm. As the fifth generation of Grabaus to run the land, both value the farm’s heritage. As people of faith, they have a favorite Bible verse that has always seemed like the truest expression of their “Thelives.

“That’s when they put in a septic system, and plumbing and electricity in the house, all that stuff we take for granted,” Randy said.He also marveled at the work done in the earliest years, including the poured cement silo, 15 feet of it below the “Allhillside.the work was done with little mechanical machinery, foundation limestone rock hauled up from down the hill, incredible amount of work,” he said. “It’s just there for us, something we’ve inherited.”
Randy now wishes he had asked more questions of his grandfather. Questions like what his work meant to him, or what life was like before they had water.“The Root River is over the hill, and I imagine they hauled water from there every day,” he said. Randy and Wendy would like their grandkids and future great-grandchildren to have an understanding of what life was like for them on the farm, no imaginationTheynecessary.pagedthrough a glossy, full-color book that was created for them in 2013 with the help of their children. It is filled with dozens of professional photos depicting life on Heritage Farm. From buildings to machinery, cows and chickens, all accompanied by the smiling faces of the family, the book will be there to tell their story. “We did this for our children, so our grandkids can show their kids what their parents did growing up,” Randy said. The Grabaus are comfortable sharing their stories and reflections with others. Together, they have published a book, “Tales from Heritage Farm,” a collection of true stories and fanciful stories written by the Grabaus. Randy also has published, “CharacterNavigators and the lessons he learned from milking cows for 38 years. Wendy writes a column in the Fillmore County Journal, aptly titled, “A Goodly Heritage.” In it, she shares her life on the farm, along with recipes from “The Settlement Cookbook.” The book was a gift to Randy from his mom when he went off to college, and Wendy inherited it when they were married. “Wendy learned a lot from my mom how to be a farm wife,” Randy said. “Now, people are asking her how to do stuff.”
Wendy has expertise in canning and preserving the bounty from the large garden which, admittedly is getting a bit smaller over the years.“Weare using what the Lord provides; we don’t want it to go to waste, so we preserve what we can,” she said.Wendy’s creative, detailed pencil drawings are sold online and at craft shows.Randy grows crops and cares for the livestock on their small farm and repairs buildings so they are in the best possible condition for the next generation. They sold the cows six years ago, after 38 years of dairying. That was hard, especially because each one descended from the cows milked by Ernest and Norman Grabau, beginning in the 1920s.“Selling my cows was like selling family,” Randy said. “It was hard to see themNow,go.” there are about 20 beef cows and, of course, the chickens. There is Mac, the friendly dog, and there is one more animal that plays a very important role on Heritage Farm. “I like the idea of having to get up every morning,” Randy said. “So, I kept one milk cow.”

One day, Randy asked Grandpa what he felt was the most significant thing he did on the farm.“When I asked him that question, I thought he would say, ‘remodeled the barn,’ or ‘remodeled the house,’” Randy said. Ernest’s answer was different: The most significant thing he did was put in a waterPointingsystem.to a now-unused windmill, he explained how the water system on the whole farm – except for the house, which is uphill from the well – runs on gravity to this day. A submersible pump fills a 3,000-gallon cistern, which supplies water lines to all the buildings. A float system in the barn maintains the water level that was used for all the animals and the milking and cooling“Hesystems.gota 240-foot well drilled,” Randy said. “Imagine how much work it was to water the cows before that. How much time that water system must have saved him. We don’t even think about water; we just turn on the faucet.”
On occasion, they host bee yard visits which they donate to non-profits to help raise funds during silent auctions. Schad is also a member of the University of Minnesota Extension Bee Squad and he teaches more experienced beekeepers there.
While working on advocacy, Schad and Shonyo are also working on the next thing for their business. They will attempt to craft a sixth variety of honey this season. For them, it’s all about the science combined with a little bit of art in the harvest. Their products range from a sunny yellow to a deep amber to the rich, thick darkness of the stout.
Chris Schad checks through hives Aug. 24 at one of the hive sites around Olmsted County. They have around 190 colonies which is roughly 50,000 bees.
The Bee Shed has affiliations with roughly 15 coffee shops who use the honey in their coffees and teas and they’re working with some breweries who use their honey to make beer. Additionally, Schad said, they work with a meadery that uses their honey instead of grapes to make mead.For Schad, it’s been a transition from a hobby he started back in 2012 keeping some bees, to running a full business – something he’s always wanted to do.

To that end, Schad and Shonyo provide beekeeper classes through community education such as a beginner beekeeping class which explains everything a hobbyist needs to know including cost, equipment and care. They also teach a full-day class on Beginning Bee Keeping in the Northern Climate, which is a more detailed how-to.
“Everybody loves honey bees and bumble bees,” Schad said. “But they should think twice before they spray. Bees are the canary in our coal mine and I think we need to make some changes.”

“I saw this as a challenge,” he said. The challenge has also come in the form of broader tationsdoingucation.ed-Schadandespe-ciallyShonyospendalotoftimepresen-forelementary schools and daycares.
“We do a lot of educating and we get a lot of satisfaction around that,” Schad said. One or the other will often bring an observation hive with them where the bees are behind glass and people can watch them work. On a cool day Schad said guests can put their hand against the glass and feel the heat generated from the work. They also see their job as advocacy, pushing everything from “No Mow May,” which allows pollinators time to emerge from their slumber, to advocating for reduced chemicals on home lawns to providing native plants so populations can thrive.
“We thought about these multiple seasons where we get these pulses of nectar,” Schad said.

And those lines, he said, are what sets the company apart.

“We sell a great product and we make money at it but we also want to advocate for pollinators in general and doing something different for the eco system,” Schad said. “It’s an opportunity to educate and create awareness.”
The Bee Shed products are also available at smaller, neighborhood grocers around the Rochester area as well as Spiral Food Co-op in Hastings, the People’s Food Co-Op and local gift shops. They create not only individual kinds of honey, but flights of honey to give as gifts. Additionally, Schad said, they have a fairly large network of corporations who use their honey as holiday gifts for employees and guests.

This year for some reason, contestants were only able to milk 4 ounces out of the cow.“We let them milk for 30 seconds, and other years people can get up to 12 to 13 ounces out of her,” Flom said. “It could be because she was recently fresh so I put the milker on her for two minutes earlier that morning. Normally I don’t milk her because she is in the middle to later part of her lactation when I bring her down here.”

Because it all begins with grapes, they continue to learn about growing them, the development of flavors in the different varieties, the effect of weather conditions, the chemistry of it all. Each year is different.
“You don’t spray to get rid of things, you spray to control them, so we’re real judicious in spraying,” Linda said. “It’s only when you absolutely need it.”

“This year is so much cooler, it’s going to be a later harvest,” Marvin said. “And, we’re not going to make any dry red wine this year; it won’t be sweet enough but will make lovely rosé.”Thetwo have traveled extensively to wine-growing regions around the world as well as within the U.S. They are also members of the Minnesota Farm Winery Association and the Minnesota Grape Growers Association, with annual meetings, networking, tours and presentations creating learning experiences for all their members. They attend short courses and, recently, have done online seminars and courses. They have put their knowledge to practice and grow about 15 varieties, including all but the newest release from the University of Minnesota.

Nearly 4.5 acres of the Seppanens’ 20-acre property is covered with lush vineyards. Seppanens page 11
This year, they have enough rain already, and would like to see the middle of October before the skies darken once more with rain clouds. When it comes to nutrition, they only add phosphate every few years. Diseases and pests are handled with as little spray as possible.
They have also studied the work of other breeders and hold in high esteem that of Elmer Swenson, a farmer and grape breeder from Osceola, Wisconsin. Much of his 90-year lifetime was spent developing about 50 varieties of grapes. Swenson was self-taught and started out wanting to develop a cold-hardy table grape. When he retired from dairy farming, Swenson worked for the University of Minnesota Horticulture Center for 8-10 years, working in the vineyards. One of the things he did was go through the old records.
“Our grapes grow more than we would like,” Marvin said. “In the desert, this time of the year you cut the irrigation off, so the plant decides, ‘we gotta get these grapes mature, because we’re going to die here.’ We don’t have that option; we gotta take what we can get and, if it rains too much, some of our grapes will actually split because they take up too much water and the skin can’t keep up with the inside pressure.”

“Prior to Prohibition, the U of M had a grape-breeding program but, with Prohibition, they fired that person and the files just sat there,” Marvin said. “So, he [Swenson] went through and made sense out of them and used that information in terms of his grape breeding. Everybody in the northern grape industry knew of him because of the varieties he developed.”TheSeppanens proudly grow several of the Swenson varieties. Their 2,500 grape vines do well on the bluffs. In spring, they benefit from the natural air flow to prevent frost, which on flat land is always a problem for growers. The clay soil is such that no irrigation is needed. Even so, the plants flourish.
