We’re still paying with pies! That’s right. Longtime subscribers know Our Iowa is mostly, “written by its readers.” For full-length articles and high quality photos we pay an appropriate freelance fee. But for the many short items and pictures we print, we show our appreciation by sending a freshly baked pecan pie from an Amish farm kitchen right to your door.

Check out the “How to Get Published” page of our website to see how you could earn your own pie: http://bit.ly/oiapublish
