With all the benefits of free-range and pastured hens with none of the risks, these DIY A-frame chicken tractors are beautiful to look at and built to last. Designed and created by Kelsey and Paul Olesen of Green Willow Homestead, this chicken-loving couple has devoted years of chicken-keeping to finding ways to make hens happier and safer all over the world."

Kelsey Jorissen Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

4-H experience as a suburban girl, then unhappy city life fed Franklin woman's desire to farm full time.

Sustainability has to start somewhere, and for Kelsey Jorissen it begins with five acres in Franklin. 

Of course, that’s not exactly where it started. The Minnesota native went to college in Chicago, then found herself touring with national Broadway shows. She worked as a photographer. Still, the city wasn’t her haven. When her fiance, Paul Olesen, got a job in Racine, it seemed a perfect time to make a change.

Jorissen didn’t grow up on a farm, but it became her dream.​..

As Told By Women Interview of Kelsey Jorissen

As Told By Women Interview of Kelsey Jorissen

"You Are Capable with Kelsey Jorissen"

What message do you think every woman should hear?
"That you are capable of anything you put your mind to, and whatever that goal may be you don’t need to bulldoze other women to get there. The larger you build your table, the more room you make for people to help you on the way to your dream. More often than not, that “big break” comes from a person who knows a person, that 2nd or 3rd degree of separation. Think about it, you would’ve already “made it” if the people in your life could help you get there. So get out there, get interested in what other women are doing with their lives, lift them up, and make your table a long one..."
