Geiger’s book, “On a Wisconsin Family Farm: Historic Tales of Character, Community, and Culture,” follows the history of his family matriarch Anna Satorie, who was the sole owner of her family’s homestead in an era before it was commonplace for women to own property. Later, she married John Burich and together they continued to improve her farm.

Moose spots author - The Brillion News

Ed Byrne of The Brillion News took this photo from a book signing event that was published on page 13 of the April 8, 2021 edition of The Brillon News.

“When Reedsville native and author Corey Geiger and his wife Krista Knigge showed up at Braun's Deer Run to autograph copies of Geiger's book, they were quickly spotted by a resident moose, which read 'On a Wisconsin Family Farm' over their shoulders.
"The book, Geiger's first, is a rollicking story about rural Reedsville where Geiger got his start in life. He is editor of Hoard's Dairyman, the leading publication serving the dairy industry. Geiger and Knigge are holding book signing events throughout the area, telling stories, and picking up some, too."
