Southwest Iowa family receives Good Farm Neighbor Award

A southwest Iowa farm family has been recognized as a 2023 winner of the Wergin Good Farm Neighbor Award.

Dennis Liljedahl and his family raise corn, soybeans, and 3,000 wean-to-finish hogs in Page County. “We’re not perfect,” he said. “We know we make mistakes, but we try to take care of the soil and the environment.”

The award is presented annually to Iowa livestock farmers who go above and beyond as environmental stewards and animal caretakers.
