We asked Mandy what she would consider her greatest achievements.

"Working with previous generations and industry professionals to build a transition and succession plan that protects our farm from potential divisions due to death or unforeseen events that could cause us to sell part of it or split it up. Staying ahead of the game with estate planning and communication with all involved has proven to be crucial to surviving."
