COMING SOON: Celebrating a Missouri RanchHER’s Story of Resilence and Advocacy

Missouri Cattle RanchHER Alda Owen joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to talk about the all-new episode of FarmHER + RanchHER, which premieres on Thursday, Sept. 19!

Missouri Cattle RanchHER Alda Owen became legally blind at a young age—but that never stopped her. She built a life raising cattle, helping neighbors in need, and becoming a voice for others like her. When she’s paired with Sweet Baby Joe through Pharm Dog USA, a new chapter begins — one marked by independence, resilience, and living life entirely on her own terms.

Alda joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to talk about the all-new episode of the show, which premieres on Thursday, Sept. 19!

In her interview with RFD-TV’s own Jennifer Vickary Smith, Owens discussed her agricultural journey, how that has continued to be possible with help from Pharm Dog USA, more about her sweet fur-baby, “Sweet Baby Joe,” and how he helps on her Missouri cattle operation. She also shared what it was like to have Kirbe and the FarmHER + RanchHER crew visit her operation and follow her around to film her daily activities.

Lastly, she talks about her passion for helping her neighbors and being an advocate for those in need, and what she hopes viewers will take away from her episode.
