This episode of The Rural View dives into the challenges and experiences of young farmers, emphasizing the importance of community, succession planning, and mental health, and how Farm Bureau is a worthy resource.

Kendall shares about her involvement in Farm Bureau through the Young Farmer and Agriculturalist program, and how she's been able to build her network and support system through the organization.

This discussion highlights the realities of farming today, including financial barriers and the difficulties in planning for the future longevity of the farm. Kendall talks about what kinds of things are often important for a young farmer to stay on the farm or return to the farm to take it over.

Kendall is grateful for her years of involvement in the YFA program through Farm Bureau and encourages other young farmers and agriculturalists to be present and be involved. Your involvement just may land some lifelong friendships (or a spouse!).
