Welcome to Episode 182 of The Spokesman Speaks podcast. In this episode, we talk with three Iowa farmers who are carving unique paths in agriculture: 

  • Meredith Nunnikhoven, who runs a farm and floristry business in Mahaska County, called Barnswallow Flowers.
  • Lillie Beringer-Crock, who sells her family’s beef and a variety of other locally-produced goods online and in-person, through her business, Beringer Family Farms in Jones County.
  • And Dan Venteicher, an eastern Iowa farmer who’s better known by his roughly 2.5 million followers across TikTok, Facebook and Instagram as the “Iowa Dairy Farmer.”
