Adams native one of two new interns at the Minnesota Farm Bureau
May 30—EAGAN — The Minnesota Farm Bureau has welcomed two summer interns, Katie Thome and Katie Radman, to its state office for the summer of 2025.
Beginning their internships on May 27, Thome and Radman will support Minnesota Farm Bureau's mission of advocating Minnesota agriculture through communication, outreach, and education.
Thome joins the team as the communications intern. Recently completing her sophomore year at the University of Wisconsin — River Falls, Thome is now planning to transfer to the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities this fall, where she will major in agricultural communications and marketing.
Raised on a farrow-to-finish farm in Adams, Thome developed a deep appreciation for the agriculture industry early in life.
During her internship, Thome will assist with content creation, media outreach, and help to share the stories that showcase the impact of agriculture in Minnesota.
"I am excited to join the team here at Minnesota Farm Bureau and look forward to continuing to promote agriculture across the state," Thome said.
Radman comes on board as the special programs intern. A junior at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, she is double majoring in animal science and agricultural communications and marketing.
Radman grew up on a corn and soybean farm in Randolph.
She will be working on organizing special programs and events that engage Minnesota's farming community, focusing on livestock management and sustainable farming practices. Radman will also support outreach efforts and help organize conferences and member meetings across the state.
"I am looking forward to a great summer with the Minnesota Farm Bureau staff," Radman said. "I cannot wait to meet with members across the state."
