Grow Getters: How the Gift of a Special Blanket Spawned a Thriving Business

When Ty and Tracy Woodard’s infant son needed brain surgery, they relied on their strong faith, expert doctors and a special blanket a nurse gave them. Two years later, with their son fully recovered, Tracy had a dream of starting a business making blankets from cotton grown on their South Carolina farm. That business, called Covered in Cotton, is now a thriving enterprise. On this episode of Grow Getters, Ty and Tracy share their powerful story with host Davis Michaelson.

Grow Getters takes a lively look at creative ways farmers are plugging into their passions and sometimes exploring new technologies to add revenue to their operations. In agriculture’s challenging economic climate, these resourceful “grow getters” are redefining what it means to be a farmer. Mixing fascinating stories with lots of humor and even some music from Davis, Grow Getters is truly an original in the world of Ag media.
