Episode 62: FarmHer, Sales Woman, and Small Business Owner, Lillie Beringer

Today, I'm SO honored to welcome Lillie Beringer to the podcast. Lillie is a third generation FarmHer from just outside of Cascade, Iowa. Being one of twenty-six grandchildren, Lillie is the only one who has taken over the family farm. At the age of twenty-five, Lillie purchased the family farm. She is primarily a beef farmer with row crops to feed her livestock. But, not only is Lillie a FarmHer, she is also a feed sales rep for her day job. I am so excited to introduce Lillie to you all and have her share her passion for agriculture and business! Key Takeaways

Under a tight timeline, Lillie was told she only had sixty days to buy the family farm. After being rejected three times, Lillie was not giving up until her loan was approved.
Working with cow-calf owners in her day job, Lillie had great resources to figure out her budget and make a cow-calf operation work in order to make payments on the land.
The gap from farmers to consumers is growing further a part everyday, in response to this, Lillie began a social media page to share what she was doing from day to day.
After taking a course and finding a locker, Lillie was able to launch her beef business selling retail cuts to the public. She offers farm pick-up and ships to all fifty states.
"Small Businesses all around want to see you succeed and they want to help out," Lillie remarks on the friendship, opportunities, and connections from surrounding small businesses.
"I have so much good that has come from my Facebook and Instagram." One thing has led to another through social media and given Lillie collaborations and inspiration.
