Today on the show, we discuss eliminating barriers for those with disabilities in our ranching and farming communities. The Cutting Fences Foundation is a nonprofit organization serving farmers, ranchers, and Veterans in agriculture who are living with a disability or illness. Kendra Lewis, the founder of the foundation, met with us to explain their mission of service through innovative, client-centered, holistic programs. Join us as she dives into ways of creating programs that meet the needs of an underserved population of agricultural producers living with a disability in Montana. 

 

In this episode we cover: 

• Identifying a great need in our agriculture community.
• Opportunities available to Montanans with disabilities.
• The great work that Kendra and Cutting Fences are doing to bring innovative programs and services to Ag communities.
• Keeping those with disabilities involved in agriculture because it’s a way of life, and much more than just a job to all of us.
