About Me

I'm Michelle Erickson-Jones. I am a 4th generation farmer in South Central Montana. I am married to a 4th generation Montana rancher. We are raising two little boys who are hopefully the 5th generation on our farm. We farm with my dad.

We raise wheat, malt barley, safflower, sunflowers, corn, alfalfa, forage grains, and maintain a small cow/calf operation.

My goal is to provide consumers, farmers, the media, and policy makers an insight into the day to day life of a farmer, breakdown U.S. farm and trade policy, and be a reliable source for insight into the world of agriculture.

I am available for speaking engagements focused on farm policy, trade, advocacy and "Finding Your Passion: Learning How to Tell Your Story"

I am a Past President of the Montana Grain Growers Association (all views expressed here are my own).
