As AZ probably knows better than anyone, this farm is located in the far northeast corner of Oregon, bordered by Washington and Idaho. For those unfamiliar, the politics of this area are about as far to the right end of the spectrum as Portland and Seattle are to the left and this particular county voted 2:1 for Trump. I suspect there is a real fascination and respect for guys who show up every year in Wallowa in Chassidish lvush with such a fanatical focus on the nuts and bolts of Pesach wheat production and this positive vibe was reflected in the Oregonian article. (Lets forget about the fact that some of the nation’s most well-credentialed anti-semitim are located across the state line Idaho.)
