Leslie Edgar grew up in a large family Kuna, Idaho, where her parents emphasized the importance of hard work and education. Back then, she probably never knew that her life would take her to multiple states only to return as the J.R. Simplot Endowed Dean of the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences at the University of Idaho. What a journey.

In this podcast, Dean Edgar breaks down how a land-grant university works with students, farmers, 4-H, FFA, extension agencies, and a host of other agriculture groups. 

Her message is simple. The University of Idaho has an amazing network of resources and projects to further the future of farming and ranching and they are accessible to a diversity of people that need them.
