Wright County grass-fed beef operation getting state-wide notice

 To say that a Wright County business got its start thanks to the Seattle Seahawks football team seems strange. But for Knute and Amanda Severson, it’s a true story. After meeting during a team internship five years ago in Washington, the couple soon found themselves back in Iowa where they have pursued a new adventure: starting a grass-fed beef operation, selling directly to consumers. Three years later, the business, called Grand View Beef, is prospering. Recently, they are getting more notice, thanks to a state Farm Bureau award opportunity.
