Farming Dream Takes Root in Arkansas

Farming Dream Takes Root in Arkansas

When Ashley was 14, her family moved from a large city in Missouri to a rural town in Vermont. Ashley had no previous experience with farms or agriculture, but at the end of the school year in Vermont, she felt the land calling to her. She contacted farms listed in the yellow pages until she found a dairy farm that invited her to intern for the summer. She fell in love with farm life, and from then on, she knew some day she would own land and be a farmer.
