A first-of-its-kind, three-day experience is set to celebrate the stories, culture, and people who form the backbone of rural America.
It is taking place in eastern Iowa next week and also has a mission to spotlight mental wellness in today’s farming and ranching communities.

Singer-songwriter Garrett Bradford is set to perform at the Heatland Event.

He stopped by the studio and spoke with RFD-TV’s Tammi Arender about his ranching roots, what Heartland aims to do, and spotlighting mental wellness in ag.
