One couple - in Iowa - has gotten into an unusual business for their area...

It's saltwater shrimp farming...

In Iowa!

(For those who don't know - Iowa is about as far away from the ocean as you can get in the USA...)

They farm their shrimp in saltwater tanks...

I think it's a fascinating story.

It sounds like they run it like a home business - with the husband (Chad) working on it full-time, and his wife (Keely) helping out (she also works as a personal trainer).

Here's where you can find more info... It could be a good business if you're in a rural area and have some space available...

Also, here's their website...
