Iowa is the nation’s leading corn producing state. The grain raised is used in livestock feed, human food ingredients, ethanol, and distilled spirits!

In this episode, you’ll hear from Amanda and Ryan Bare, owners of Century Farm Distillery. They take pride in sourcing the corn for their spirits from family farms and passing those stories along to the consumer.

You’ll also hear from Lanae Bristow and Will Foley, elementary school teachers from southwest Iowa, who work with a local ethanol distillery to teach their students about science and local careers.

Through these interviews, we hope you’ll learn about distillation, uses for corn, and what the crop can mean to communities, both rural and urban. Listen in to learn more!
