She also loves promoting dairy products. Combine that with an appreciation of the rural lifestyle and you’ll discover one of Green County’s most passionate advocates for Wisconsin agriculture. As a teenager Stacy worked as a hired hand for a Monticello farmer. At the time, it was rare to find Alice Carroll Dierickx as a single female operating her own farm. Stacy admires Alice as her mentor in agriculture and as the woman who taught her how to milk cows. Stacy volunteers with Farm Bureau’s “Ag in the Classroom” program and 4-H dairy promotion programs. But her interest in agriculture also goes beyond Green County borders. With an educational background in accounting and dairy herd management, she was the perfect candidate to serve as a representative to the WI Dairy Council which eventually transitioned into the WI Milk Marketing Board. As a district director she oversees regional and national campaigns promoting consumption of Wisconsin dairy products. The new “Dairy Doing More” campaign is a WMMB initiative Stacy is excited about. She recently returned from the International Dairy Foods Assn. Conference in Miami where she saw WMMB reps working with audiences like stores and restaurants, and reaching out to school food service programs. Stacy recently faced a terrible tragedy – the loss of her husband in a house fire. “Randy and I sometimes talked about what to do if something happened to either of us, and he said to sell the cows. But right now being on the farm is my comfort zone.” Living on the farm has meant dealing with weather, stress, hard work, and now a loss of her partner in life and work. As Stacy and her four daughters look to the future, she’ll be considering all the options and is confident that whatever decision she makes will be well thoughtout. “I need to find the balance of work, fun, family, and the rural lifestyle,” she says. “My ultimate goal is to keep the farm going and make it work for the girls and I.” After the fire, area farmers milked the Eberle herd for three weeks, and the outpouring of support from the community was overwhelming. “Our family was news when the fire happened; I wish the media would come back to do a story about people coming together to help.” This time it was ‘advocating for the advocate’ as the people of Green County helped one of their own.
