Olmstead County’s Brenna Connelly named 67th Princess Kay

The 67th Princess Kay of the Milky Way is embracing the unique challenge of representing Minnesota dairy farmers in the midst of a global pandemic.

Brenna Connelly of Byron tells Brownfield there is a lot of uncertainty in the year ahead, but also a lot of opportunity.

“To share our stories through social media and through live videos from our farms. We can share some of our favorite recipes with consumers through videos at our own houses, and I think that’s really where our opportunity lies.”

She says she’s looking forward to meeting people from all over Minnesota.

“My main goal this year is just to connect with individuals and really hear their story. We all have our unique story, and I’m looking forward to hearing others and really getting to have those conversations. I think that’s what I’m looking forward to the most.”

Connelly is a sophomore studying agricultural education and animal science at the University of Minnesota.
