Rose Tryon: On Resilience and Getting Involved

Rose Tryon is the current president of American Agri-Women, an advocacy group devoted to amplifying the voices and the efforts of the many women involved in agribusiness. She and her husband also survived the 2018 fire that destroyed much of Paradise, CA, including their own home. But instead of simply rebuilding and moving on, Rose channeled her experience in advocacy into action. She told us her story at the 2025 World Ag Expo in Tulare, CA. 

On Life & Land is produced for John Deere by Bader Rutter and is hosted by David Jones, former editor of John Deere's The Furrow magazine. Recording, mixing and mastering services are provided by RecWest Studio, and our music is by Dale May.
