Hitting the Trail with Chris Zeigler Butler-Freeport Community Trail
There is so much to say about Chris Zeigler’s dedication to our beautiful Butler-Freeport Trail. Chris has managed to improve miles and miles of trail and attain quite a bit of grant funds to pay for these improvements. As the grant writer extraordinaire, she’s also responsible for getting the big wagon wheel project started and soon to be complete. The wagon wheel is an area that connects 5 trails that give us access all the way to Erie and down and through Pittsburgh. She also heads up the infamous Buffalo Creek Half Marathon.
Farming Legacy with Farmer Jim Riddle
Mr. Jim Riddle was given his first calf when he was 4 years old. It’s like the rite of passage in cattle farming and he’s been doing it ever since.He and his wife Helen fostered over 100 boys through the years and shared the love of their home generously to all of them.This beautiful farm is nestled on my favorite road in all of Sarver; Smith Road, set with rolling hills and cattle grazing throughout.As Sarver grows I pay close attention to documenting how it is now so we can remember how it was years from now.I hope you enjoy taking a peek into a true farmers story.
Season 1
Saved By Grace
The vision of Saved by Grace Church is to allow momentum that restores family values to our community through humble service.That was really easy to understand and feel when I interviewed these great folks who have now transitioned from a brick and mortar church to updated pop-up style gatherings in the local community.One of the things about their church I think many of you will love to know is that they welcome all people. All denominations, all lifestyles, each and everyone.
