Growing up on a small farm in Ohio, Evans always had a passion for animals and agriculture.

With no prior business experience, Evans faced many challenges. But thanks to her perseverance and superior work ethic, she grew her business to what it is today.
As an influencer, Evans uses her social media platforms to advocate for and educate about agriculture. With almost 200,000 views on her website, she has become a well-known figure in the industry. Evans earned a nomination for a cheer choice award in the animal advocate category, a testament to her dedication and hard work.
However, being a woman in agriculture comes with its unique set of challenges. Evans has faced criticism and backlash from animal activists but refuses to let it get her down. She advises others to stay true to themselves and not focus on the numbers. She believes that it's what you do in the times when the views are down that makes your platform.
Empowering generations of women, Evans breaks down barriers and shows that women can succeed in any industry. However, by being a tattooed female who leans liberal, she is adding a new look to the 'farmer' stereotype.

Looking toward the future, Evans plans to expand her small business and enter some chain stores with her own line. She also wants to continue growing her social media platforms to advocate and educate about agriculture. Her dreams and aspirations are limitless, and she continues to inspire women everywhere to pursue their goals.
Evans is a shining example of what someone can achieve when blending passion, hard work, and perseverance. As a woman in the male-dominated agriculture industry, she is breaking down gender barriers and paving the way for women to follow in her footsteps.
In addition, Evans’ dedication to empowering and educating others about agriculture and business is making a real difference in her community and on a broader scale via her growing social media platforms. Through her achievements and impact, Lacie Evans proves that women can succeed and thrive in any industry, regardless of the obstacles they encounter.
