Representing Wisconsin's farmers on a national level isn't for everyone. But for one woman, it was her dream.Olivia Roth is a Wisconsin youth who is serving on the National Farmers Union Youth Advisory Council (NYAC). She helps to promote policy and better the future of Wisconsin farmers. She explains how her family's values are what led her to this opportunity.

“My family were some of the founding members of the South Central chapter of the Wisconsin Farmers Union,” says Roth. “We joined because Farmers Union stands for fairness for farmers, quality of food, and much more that my family also believes in.”

Roth has been a member for eight years and has attended many youth activities. She attended the National Farmers Union All-State Leadership Camp and it was there that she learned about the opportunity to serve on the advisory council.
