I had the privilege of sitting down with Michelle Martin from Ag Mag. We dove into farming in South Texas and Michelle's entrepreneur ventures within the Agriculture Industry! Thank you Michelle for chatting with me!
More about Michelle:
Michelle Michelle Martin, born and raised in McAllen, Texas. She graduated from Sharyland High School in 2004 and furthered her education at Texas A&M University in College Station. In 2009 she moved back to the Valley and began working at Rio Queen which is now Wonderful Citrus, and later went on to work for a private school as their marketing and advertising director. After three years, she decided to quit her job and start her own business which is the Ag Mag. The Ag Mag is an agricultural publication for the Rio Grande Valley. The Ag Mag is now going on its 7th year and has readership of 50,000. While running her own publication Michelle has also started a program called Farmer Who which allows the consumer to know exactly where their food is coming from, by simply placing your phones camera to the Farmer Who sticker. There a one minute video pops up with the farmer who grew that piece of produce. Soon she will do all commodities, poultry, beef. Etc… Michelle also is the owner and host to a TV show called Ag on Wheels which you can find clips of on RFD, whole episodes on her youtube channel, social media, and her local ABC channel. Michelle is also a mother to a loving farm boy who is four years old, as well as a wife to a farmer!
