No more quinoa! New Minnesota State Fair rules set the crop art community abuzz Minnesota State Fair crop artists react to new rules, including a future quinoa ban. With limits on entries and seed changes, expect a surge of quinoa-heavy art this year.

MPR interviewed me and other crop artists about the rule changes for the 2026 and 2027 Minnesota State Fair and we talked about the upcoming quinoa ban. I also make bonus crow caw sounds. LOL

Cute, they should name it Moira Rose

He got the Bob Uecker treatment.

Yeah, whoever decided on the UHC seat advertisement is going to look like a genius this year

Definitely should be

Can’t believe they bothered to kick you out of the section. The place has been so empty.

I’ll let you know if I ever get there, I’m stuck at the Le Petomane Thruway.

That is actually a good take and correct.

That was mine too! It made me very partial to the 1980’s mlb uniforms

12ft? That’s the Cordoba at the Clamdigger Deli. They specialize in giant hoagies.

My dog will be leading the revolution if there is a cheese shortage

I mean, not a bad plan at all.

It’s just daycare and healthcare states. What could it cost, $10?

Everyone is like “the crop art will be off the hook this year!” because of all the protest pieces and yes, for sure, I have one of those, but I also had to memorialize the Midway CVS. 🪦

Ha! Love it!

Nice! Out of curiosity, does TwinsTV give you the Saints games too?

Some say he plagiarized that one. I don’t believe it though.

We were harassed out of our seats by bees at the last spring training game today. I took it as an omen for the upcoming season

There are far worse places to exist for sure

Working in coordination with standwithminnesota.com, I’m raising rent funds for Minneapolis immigrant families in need. We now have a $5000 match offer (!) and are going to help as many families as we can to stay housed today.

I’m sure she loved it :)

She looks shocked by how accurate it is

Lint Julep

Wish I hadn’t seen that right before going to bed. The Miller one is def going to give me nightmares.

Given the owner’s politics, he is probably a fan

That was a fun show

This was mine too!
