Olivia and her family own DeVooght Farms and run DeVooght's General Store in Skandia, where they sell food they produce, as well as products from other local farmers. Their dairy barn roof collapsed in 2019 after 14 feet of snowfall, Olivia had to decide if they wanted to rebuild or quit altogether. They continued to press on, because as Olivia said, "The milk prices aren't good, but the lifestyle is." She and her husband Craig just welcomed a new baby, Hazel Anne.
