Last but not least, a site dear to our hearts! Our mascot Teddy is a Wire Hair Fox Terrier. These dogs love the land. This link is in memory of Schoike, a dear Wire Hair Fox Terrier who passed away and loved to hike the fields and forests with his proud owner, LandChoices' founder Kirt Manecke.

NOTE: While we may not agree with everything in the The Story of Stuff (below), it ties into how we waste land and natural resources. We feel it's message of over consumption and the importance of buying local, from family farms and downtown merchants, is important.
