Halei Heinzel named Wisconsin’s 77th Alice in Dairyland

A woman who grew up off the farm but became very active in FFA has been chosen as the 77th Alice in Dairyland.  Halei Heinzel was selected from the six top candidates.  She tells Brownfield that in her high school junior year, FFA experience showed her the many possible careers in agriculture. “With 12% of our careers in Wisconsin being based in agriculture, it’s absolutely out there for everyone.”

Heinzel will work with current Alice in Dairyland Ashley Hagenow until the first week in July after wrapping up college this week.
