Hi, I'm Amanda! My family farms corn and soybeans in Southwest Michigan. I'm also a practicing attorney.
I really want to encourage consumers and non-farm people to connect with and engage with farmers on social media. Today, I’m hosting a farm page share day on my Facebook page! I hope you’ll hop over there and either share your page or connect with some farmers (of course, I also hope you’ll like my page!)
