About Karah

York, Nebraska

I farm with my husband and our four kids.  We have a diversified farm including a cow/calf operation, row crops, and a pullet barn (where we raise young hens). My husband has a full-time job with an ag retail company, so the day-to-day duties are up to me and our kids. 

I am a farmer’s daughter; and I love passing down all the lessons I learned to the kids and teaching them how to work as a family on the farm. Farming and caring for our animals have taught our kids empathy and patience.  I hope to share my story about our farm and help consumers make informed food choices.
