When you’re in the day-to-day trenches the last thing most think to do is educate and spread awareness to consumers about what we’re facing and how it will effect them. I truly believe that most consumers don’t want some of the changes that are being proposed these days, but without adequate knowledge they hop on a fad full of hope of changing the world. 🚜 I’d love to meet others in the production agriculture industry, discuss upcoming changes, spread awareness to consumers, and preserve our food supply in the process. Being offensive instead of defensive is my goal! 🏫 In the past I was a huge advocate for change in the education system. The above Student Centered Accountability Project link is a pilot project where several districts across CO are building a new model for evaluating schools and districts. They are more than a score. 👦🏼 I believe kids should be independent ready by 18, not “college and career ready”. Kids need exposure and tools to effectively navigate the changing world they will encounter, and be adaptable to challenges that life poses taking them to various careers and places. 🏥 HELLP survivor and preeclampsia awareness advocate.
