Johnson lives on a Century Farm in Webster County, and is the third generation living on the family farm. She is currently restoring and remodeling her grandparents home, where she currently lives.

“I’m still a farm girl,” Johnson said, “I still have chores at home.”

Jordon works with her parents, Brian and Lacy Johnson, “We raise around 100 head of purebred Angus cattle, along with Herefords,” she said. “I’ve been raising and showing cattle most of my life.”

It’s a big shift for Johnson.

“It’s definitely pushed me out of my comfort zone, but a lot of my marketing has been for farm and cattle. So it’s still related,” she said.
