Introducing Ms. Tomielle Lane and Meet Three Rising Stars in Agriculture!
Three talented young women—, Ashera Ali El, Jariya Glover, and Patricia Henderson—are eager to expand their knowledge of goats and small ruminants as they embark on an immersive internship experience. Passionate about agriculture and livestock, these driven individuals are excited to explore the value-added aspects of small ruminant production, from dairy and fiber processing to sustainable herd management and agribusiness opportunities.
