AT Item of the Month: Hearing Protection

    “Huh?”

    “What??”

    “Come again???”

    If you find yourself saying these phrases all too often, it may be time to start using hearing protection! In fact, even if you have stellar hearing, it’s important to use hearing protection to keep it that way! Farming can often mean being exposed to loud noises over prolonged periods of time, which can make you susceptible to hearing loss. Assistive technology like ear muffs or ear plugs is an easy and inexpensive way to help protect your hearing.
