Rooted in FFA: Janyel Taylor’s Journey from Teacher to Nursery Leader

In this episode of The Modern Farming Podcast, Kris and Tara sit down with Janyel Taylor, Nursery Operations Manager and Chief Financial Officer at Ralph Taylor’s Nurseries.

Janyel’s journey into agriculture began in high school, where an influential FFA teacher sparked a passion that would shape her future. That early inspiration led her to the University of Florida, and eventually into the classroom, where she spent eight years as an agriculture teacher investing in the next generation.

Today, Janyel plays a key role in her family’s nursery business, combining her background in education with hands on experience in operations and financial leadership. Her story is a powerful example of how strong roots in agricultural education can grow into lifelong impact within the industry.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The role FFA and ag teachers play in shaping future careers

• Her transition from the classroom to the family nursery business

• What it takes to manage both operations and finances in a growing agricultural operation

• The importance of family legacy in agriculture

• Encouragement for young people considering a path in agriculture

Whether you come from a farming background or are just beginning to explore the industry, Janyel’s story is a reminder that the right mentor and a willingness to step forward can open doors you never expected.

🎧 Listen now and be inspired by a journey rooted in education, leadership, and a deep commitment to agriculture.
