What clients have to say...
“Michelle Miller AKA “The Farm Babe” is an amazing guest speaker. She spoke at our regional convention last fall about, “Bridging the gap between the farmer and the consumer”. She kept the audience engaged with her humorous and informative presentation. What impressed me the most was that she stayed for the rest of our convention to learn about our unique industry in agriculture. She engaged with business owners, speakers, government officials, and vendors before and after her presentation.”
- Weston Sharp, Vice President of Iowa Agricultural Aviation Association

"Michelle's presentation on the topic of "Social Media in Agriculture" was received extremely well by our group. Within the agricultural sector, social media has quickly become a source of key information and networking and with Michelle's presentation; she captivated the audience to understand how to amplify their voice in the new social world and educated all on many of the main platforms to help determine how best to use these tools to benefit not only their farm business operation but also to educate others. Michelle's style of communication was personable and thoughtful. It was clear that everyone left the session thinking about how they will use social media to do things differently or in addition to their present farm practices."
