Kansas RanchHER Brandi Buzzard Helps Farmers and Consumers Find Common Ground

Buzzard discusses her upcoming appearance on the Dirt Diaries podcast with host Kirbe Schnoor and the importance of sharing authentic stories about agriculture.

GREELEY, Kan. (RFD-TV) — Brandi Buzzard, a Kansas RanchHER and creator of Buzzard’s Beat, is working to bridge the gap between consumers and farmers. What began as a blog aimed at correcting misconceptions about the beef industry has since grown into a full media platform spotlighting agriculture. We welcomed Brandi Buzzard, creator of Buzzard’s Beat, to the program.

In her interview with RFD-TV News, Buzzard shared her background in agriculture and the journey that led her to become a voice for the industry. She also explained why she wanted to create Buzzard’s Beat, and walked us through the range of topics she covers on the platform for her audiences both inside and outside of agriculture.

Buzzard also discussed her recent appearance on the Dirt Diaries podcast with host Kirbe Schnoor and previewed what listeners can expect from that episode. She emphasized the importance of sharing authentic stories from agriculture—especially with consumers who may be unfamiliar with how their food is produced.
