Bio
Mitchell Hora
Margaret is simply the best and my definition of a Southern Belle. You won’t find a sweeter lady but you also won’t find a better ag business, marketing, and product development mentor. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with Margaret during and after my experience in the AgLaunch Accelerator program. Margaret is and continues to be a trusted advisor, ally, and friend.
Chad Johnson
Margaret has been a tremendous asset for our startup. As a matter of fact she was our very first "pitch" and has been essential in our development at Grain Weevil ever since. Margaret has a unique skillset that she combines with an excellent "mentorship" mentality. It always seems that Margaret has the the right insight, recommendation, or connection we need for every challenge we have faced. I would highly recommend that any company (but especially an ag-tech startup) engage with Margaret - she will quickly become one of the best assets on your team.
