While on a walk one Sunday morning in January 1971, a friend told Gary Vermeer that he was getting out of the cattle business because putting up hay was too much effort. That got Gary thinking that there ought to be a better way. And within a few months, he had developed the Vermeer round baler, which revolutionized the haying industry.While that was clearly a milestone, there were many significant inventions put to the market in the 60-year history of Vermeer Manufacturing Corporation. With a cousin, Gary founded the company in 1948 with a simple wagon hoist he made to make his life and those of his fellow farmers easier. But In Search of A Better Way is more than the remarkable story of an inventor, it is also the story of Gary and his wife, Matilda, who together raised three children, traveled the world, and generously donated to causes that benefited their hometown of Pella, Iowa, and religious and educational institutions over the world--all while giving credit and glory to their God and Creator.
