LEIGH
LOPEZ
I got into agriculture in order to be
a good steward to the land.
I’m growing food but I also get to be an educator and try
to reach out to a younger generation to instill in them the
importance of why eating healthy is important, what
agriculture is, and where our food comes from. I’m not
trying to make them a farmer per se but to try to open
their eyes to all the different kinds of careers that can
come out of agriculture in general.
