Rick, a native of the rural mid-west, has been a member of the National Association of Farm Broadcasters for over twenty years. In addition to the early morning show Rick provides an hour’s worth of news and information for people on the farm and in the city. Rick is the recipient of the Michigan Farm Bureau’s Farm Broadcaster of the Year award.
