First Place Award for 2020 Outstanding Column & Blog from Virginia Outdoor Writers Association View All Awards
  • “There’s often a story about cattle, a little talk of environmental concerns, and a mention of his ‘Princess’ and her collaborative work with him. That’s how conversations go when I get a chance to visit with Bobby. He’s easygoing and always has a great story, but there’s a wealth of shared experience, knowledge, and love of farming and our environment in everything Bobby does. This latest book is just like sitting down and visiting with Bobby. You’ll enjoy every bit of it.”
