Episode 272: Changing the Face of Agriculture in America | Tara and Natalie from the Discover AG Podcast

Welcome back to the Plant Free MD podcast with Dr. Anthony Chaffee! In this exciting return engagement, we're thrilled to reconnect with Natalie and Tara, the dynamic duo behind the Discover Ag podcast. This time, we delve deeper into their crucial work combating the misconceptions and outright falsehoods surrounding livestock agriculture, and explore the innovative ways they're amplifying the importance of animal-based agriculture in America and across the globe.

Natalie Kovarik and Tara Vander Dussen, co-hosts of the impactful Discover Ag docu-series and podcast, have been powerful voices for agriculture online for over a decade. Together, they've cultivated a thriving community exceeding 220,000, graced stages worldwide, and empowered countless individuals to reconnect with the vital agricultural industry and the people who nourish us.

Natalie Kovarik, rooted in the Nebraska Sandhills, continues to share her authentic ranching and family life, showcasing the beauty of the western lifestyle and building trust in agriculture. Alongside her husband and their three sons, she manages Kovarik Cattle Co., a growing cow-calf operation. Natalie's dedication to sharing her story has fostered an online community of over 120,000, led to an apparel line supporting agricultural foundations, and prompted speaking engagements across the sector. She also co-founded Elevate Ag, an online resource empowering producers to effectively utilize social media.

Tara Vander Dussen, a New Mexico native, fifth-generation dairy farmer, environmental scientist, and mother of two, balances her career as an environmental consultant with her passionate advocacy. While her husband, Daniel, manages their family dairy farm, Tara's influence extends to national and global stages, including the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization Committee on World Food Security and the Forbes AgTech Summit. Alongside co-hosting Discover Ag, she co-founded Elevate Ag, equipping farmers and ranchers with the tools to share their stories and grow their businesses. Join us as we explore the latest developments in their mission to champion animal-based agriculture!"
