SKIDMORE, Mo. | Dale Byler takes pride in the fact that he and his family live off the land on their farm in northwest Missouri. Large gardens provide everything from strawberries and raspberries to a variety of vegetables. They raise chickens for the eggs and poultry. They make their own bread and pies, and they’ve even had cows to provide their dairy products.
