A Farm Story with Jerry Apps

Thursday, August 8, 9 p.m., WKAR | Watch and call or Give Now for special DVD offers.

Experience farm life in the 1930s and 40s through the eyes of a boy growing up in Wild Rose, Wisconsin, the archetype of rural America, guided by acclaimed author, teacher and historian Jerry Apps.

Like a family photo album, this portrait evokes memories of experiences that created the values of hard work, determination and community.

WKAR’s first live pledge drive since federal funding was eliminated is happening now. Our goal for the drive is $60,000 and reaching it will bring us one step closer to closing the federal funding gap.
