“I am the Princess AND the Pig Farmer”

Real Farm Stories. Real Straight Farm Talk.

Heidi welcomes opportunities to speak at farm-centric events and ag industry groups of all kinds via webinars or in-person engagements. An insightful, informed, and inspiring storyteller and presenter, she has been a guest lecturer in academic settings such as the Penn State College of Agricultural Science, a conference speaker for such events as the AG Promotion TASK Conference for the PA Farm Bureau, and an agribusiness panelist for career advancement groups such as Young Ag Professionals.

Champion for America’s Heroes in the Field

A fellow farmer describes Heidi as “a woman who uses her platform to advocate for a forgotten population, the American Farmer.” Heidi is a certified animal and poultry welfare officer and she has been selected as an industry Leader by the National Pork Board and National Pork Producers Council, to participate in their Pork Leadership Institute program. She believes “when we take on the responsibility of raising livestock, we owe it to them to do our very best. Any great farmer can tell you about the holidays, family meals, or kids sports games they’ve missed because there was an animal that needed tending and it couldn’t wait.”
