I have interviewed some incredible people, and Teresa Davis is no exception. A farm kid who now owns "West Forty Market" in Uptown Ankeny, Teresa is so passionate about small towns, supporting other local businesses, and high quality meat. An awesome store and some fantastic meat, I'm a huge fan of all that they offer. I love this conversation and I think you will, too.
