My passion for the Grasslands of America is evidenced through this organizations literature over the past 5 months. In the mountains you never feel alone, as you are surrounded by the purple majesty of innumerable wonders. The plains by contrast are full of melancholy, the howling wind and vastness of sky are constant reminders of loneliness. In this landscape I find peace.

Ribs are synonymous with summer, but, sometimes it’s great to switch up the typical Kansas city or Carolina style sauces with something just a bit outside of the box. These Plum and 5 Spice Glazed Boar Ribs have become one of our family’s favorites during plum season.
