Rooted In Leadership Episode 1: The Power of Being Involved
Join me for a visit with Boe Lopez, an Extension agent, rancher, and mayor of Springer, New Mexico. Boe shares how taking a risk attending an agricultural conference while he was an undergraduate resulted in opportunities that still haven’t stopped coming as he has stepped into leadership time and again. Boe has been involved numerous agricultural organizations from the local to the national level, including Farm Bureau Federation, New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association, U.S. Cattlemen’s, Colfax County (NM) Soil and Water Conservation District. In 2023, he was recognized with the NM Cattle Growers’ Association King Service Award, which honors “an individual whose talents and demeanor positively impact communities of New Mexico and inspire those around them to take action, too.”
*due to some audio issues, we join Boe as he begins to share about his background and journey.
