Matthew Miller is a graduate of Iowa State and has been farming organically for the past twelve years. He also works as an organic inspector and has completed more than two thousand compliance audits of organic farms and food-processing facilities in Iowa and surrounding states. Following completion of his bachelor's degree in agricultural education and agricultural business, he taught high school agricultural education.
