Crawford County Farm Bureau and Crawford County Cattlemen’s Association invite you to join us March 2 at 6:30 p.m. at the Bucyrus Nazarene Church for a night with Amanda Radke and Zoe Kent speaking about agricultural advocacy.

Amanda Radke is a fifth generation rancher from Mitchell, South Dakota who has dedicated her career to serving as a voice for the nation’s farmers and ranchers. Radke regularly tackles industry issues as a columnist and speaker.

A former National FFA Extemporaneous Speaking Champion and National Beef Ambassador, Radke has spent the last 15 years on the road fighting for the agriculture, rural America, and the western way of life. She’s gone head-to-head against animal rights activists, environmental extremists, politicians, and celebrities who seek to eliminate animal agriculture. She believes food security is national security, and her work is focused on keeping producers on the land and ensuring every citizen has access to safe, affordable and nutritious food in this

Radke is a mom of four and the author of seven agriculturally-accurate children’s books, and her goal is to help promote agricultural literacy in schools to empower the next generation of consumers and to protect the farmers and ranchers providing the essentials of life for all.

Zoe Kent is an 8th-generation grain farmer in Ohio. After getting an agribusiness degree from The Ohio State University, she returned to the farm to work alongside her dad, Mickey. With Mickey’s retirement at the end of 2021, Zoe is now entering her second year of operating Kent Family Farms.

Zoe posts family friendly, funny farming videos under the handle @farmwithzoe on Instagram and Tik Tok.

This is a free event and open to the public. No RSVPs are needed.
