Known online as the New Mexico Milkmaid, Tara van der Dussen shatters sterotypes as easily as she recites agricultural . She's a Mother, a Millenial, a Dairy Farmer, an Agricultural Scientist and the co-host of the Discover Ag Podcast. Quite the combination.

In our latest episode, Tara, a 5th-generation dairy farmer, offers a unique perspective on an industry often misunderstood by those of us it nourishes. She helps explain the intricate connection between taking care of the farm and taking care of the environment.

We talk agricultural technology, consumer trust, and the unwritten stories behind your food labels. Tara explains the dairy supply chain and the true nature of grass-fed products.

If you've ever wondered about the journey of milk from cow to Subway cheese slice, Tara's got the answers for you.

Tara tells a multi-generational story that weaves our common past with our present, debunking s few of the marketing myths that often guide our food choices.

We round out the conversation with an inspiring vision of challenges shaping the future of farming.
