Virginia's Young Farmers Podcast
Join two Virginia Young "ag"vocates, Ashley & Dustin, as they discuss agriculture and farming from their perspective. We believe Thomas Jefferson said it best when he said, "Agriculture is our wisest pursuit because it will, in the end, contribute most to real wealth, good morals, and happiness". So join us - a generational farmer and a farming hopeful - as we share our passion for all things agriculture and hopefully educate, inform, and entertain you along the way.

Virginia's Young Farmers Podcast
What I Need To Know From My Vet
We recovered THE lost episode from spring 2024 where we sit down with two respected Virginia veterinarians, Dr. Amanda Weakley-Scott and Dr. Melinda McCall.
Dr. McCall shares fond memories and crazy stories about being a vet from her book, "Driving Home Naked", which sheds light on being a vet, connecting with farmers, and motherhood. She was a speaker at our Women's Conference offering advice and tips from herself and Dr. Temple Grandin on talking to consumers, like "soccer moms", about what we do as farmers. Listen closely as Amanda and Melinda all fill us in on what we need to be doing with our large animals to be PROACTIVE this spring on the farm.
