Hi there, and welcome to What’s the Tea in Rural KC.

I’m your host, Kelsey Legate, your go-to girl for rural real estate, a mom of two, homesteader at heart, and a firm believer that fresh eggs and small-town stories are worth sharing.

Around here, we celebrate what makes rural Kansas City so special, from new businesses popping up on Main Street, to community events you don’t want to miss, to the behind-the-scenes stories that have everyone in town talking.

On this podcast, you won’t just hear the usual updates. I’ll be sitting down with the people making things happen in Rural KC. You’ll get the inside scoop straight from owner’s mouths, answering all the questions everyone in town is already buzzing about. From new businesses to local developments to the stories behind the headlines. If people are talking about it, I’ll be talking to them.

Think of this as your front-porch conversation with a neighbor: casual, a little fun, sometimes surprising, where we sip on what’s brewing in and around our community.

Each week, I’ll be bringing you local business owners, community leaders, and everyday folks who are making Rural KC thrive. Whether you’re raising kids, raising chickens, or just curious about what life is like outside the city, you’ll find something here to connect with.

So grab your vanilla iced coffee, and let’s get to sipping.
