Emily has been taking Burton on farm visits and providing him with policy resources and archived AgrAbility webinars so he has a well-rounded training experience.

After a life-changing accident, Eric Fass faced challenges that could have ended his farming and ranching career. But with unwavering support from his wife, Amanda, and the assistance of Nebraska AgrAbility, Eric adapted and continued to pursue his passion for farming and ranching. In this YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYq5XxY9-rU), the Fass family shares their experiences and how working with Emily Jacobson and Nebraska AgrAbility provided opportunities to stay hopeful and being able to stay on the farm. Their story is a testament to determination, love, and the power of community support.
