Wall named ‘Pork Queen’
News · July 17, 2014


West Branch’s Sarah Wall was named the Iowa Pork Queen by the Iowa Pork Congress in Des Moines in January.


Wall said she decided to compete for the title since she is majoring in agriculture.

“Educating others about agriculture and the pork industry especially is something I am very passionate about,” she said. “Most people in today’s day in age are four to five generations removed from the farm. Meaning, fewer and fewer people know how food gets on their plate, fuel gets in their car, and clothes get on their back.”

She said that she is among the 1 percent of the population who grew up on a farm, so she shares her story “about how food goes from a farm such as my family’s, to your family’s dinner table.”

Wall said she takes great pride in sharing that information.
