Every leadership journey starts with an investment.

Hear from Pamela Doane, Class of 2024, about the impact Leadership Johnson County has made on her leadership journey.

Her story is a reminder that when you invest in leadership, you invest in the future of our community.

A Day Learning About Agriculture in Johnson County!

The Leadership Johnson County Class of 2027 spent the day exploring the important role agriculture plays in our community during our Agriculture Program Day!

The day began with an Agriculture Overview, giving our class the opportunity to learn more about the industry and its impact on Johnson County. From there, the class headed out for farm tours, getting a firsthand look at local agricultural operations and hearing directly from the people who make them possible.

A huge thank you to Corey and Alicia Geesey for joining us to share their knowledge and perspectives. We are grateful for the time they took to help our class better understand agriculture in our community.

We also want to extend a special thank you to Crystal Springs Grain for being a sponsor and supporting Leadership Johnson County!

And a heartfelt thank you to our incredible farm hosts for opening their doors, sharing their operations, and welcoming our class with such wonderful hospitality:

Crystal Springs Grain – Brian Marten
Norton Farms – John Norton
Kelsay Farms – Joe Kelsay

After the tours, the class came back together for a discussion of the driving tour, followed by a session on Civil Civic Discourse and time to reflect on goals for the year.

It was a full day of learning, connection, and gaining a deeper appreciation for the people and industries that help make Johnson County such a great place to live and work. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who helped make this day possible!
