Andrea spent 13 years working in Environmental Health for a local public health department where she developed a broad knowledge of private sewage disposal systems and private water wells. Their impactful relationship to each other and soil health made education for landowners essential in this role. Andrea enjoys the educational role of PCM Specialist helping farmers make informed decisions for their operations. Showing them the economic and environmental benefits of their efforts is an absolute win-win. Andrea believes that farmers are some of the best stewards of the land and that she’ll develop great relationships through PCM. She and her husband, Joe, recently built their home next to his family’s farm in Red Bud.
