Customer Reviews
Love this podcast
As a farmer and farm wife it is nice to hear the struggles about farming, raising kids, running businesses and being a farm wife. It is also nice to hear about the positive things, other perspectives of farming and how other farmers farm in other parts of the country. It’s a good mix of girl talk and learning.
Love!
Just love these ladies! What great ambassadors for Agriculture!
Relatable and Informative!
The functional medicine episode is amazing. I am not in a stage of motherhood yet, but the episodes like this one help to make me feel prepared for when that time comes. Also, it was a good reminder that you can work in conventional ag, and be crunchy at the same time!
