Today's guest is Karen Wheatley. Born and raised on a dairy farm in northeastern Maryland, Karen was involved in all things 4-H growing up - from showing cattle at their fairs, to competing in quiz bowl contests and judging. After graduating from the University of Delaware with a degree in Animal Science, she spent the next decades working in the Ag Industry - in communications, magazine publications, and most recently in A.I. She and her husband Mike own Black Eyed Susan Cattle Company, which includes both registered Hereford and Simmental cattle, and a sheep business. They have two grown children who are also both actively employed (and loving!) the Ag Industry!
