In this episode, we meet MBFI’s amazing summer students. These up and coming Ag professionals have been busy at the farm doing everything from cattle health checks and daily moves, to yard work, seeding, haying and everything in between! Each of them has a slightly different career path and future plan, but their love of the outdoors and the animals they work with is a common theme. Join me as I introduce the 2026 Summer Students!
