Calm conservationist Tim Terwilliger, combines professions

Humboldt’s Tim Terwilliger is pictured in one of his bean fields west of Humboldt. His beans were planted later than some in the area and had not turned color in late August. He was holding out hope that some much needed rain would come to help fill out the bean pods. Humboldt Independent photo by Kent Thompson.

Whether he’s in his combine or the voice on the other end of the line of an emergency call, Tim Terwilliger doesn’t get too excited.
As a dispatch supervisor for the Humboldt County Law Enforcement Center, he can’t.
As a farmer who is concerned about conservation and leaving a lasting legacy, he doesn’t want to.
The old adage of staying calm, cool and collected fits the Corinth Township farmer well.
