Grove Cattle Farm
This essay is about Kristi Grove, who is legally blind. She was born with optic nerve atrophy, but that hasn't stopped her from working on the farm with her husband, Dan, and their daughter, Leah. The family breeds Texas Longhorn cattle in North Carolina. When she's not working on the farm, Kristi stays busy teaching riding lessons.
Kristi has found innovative ways to continue her work on the farm. She uses an app on her iPhone to magnify items up close and special glasses with binocular lenses to aid her in seeing things at a distance.
Her unwavering passion for farming is genuinely inspiring despite her visual impairment. Her dedication to her farm and her family's Texas Longhorn cattle is a testament to her resilience and determination.
