52. Tony & Merry Kroeger: Community over Competition/horse boarding/weed zapper/nonchemical weed control/agriculture/Heartland Eq Stables/Missouri Equine/Horse Stables/Abundant Harvest/Pastor
Welcome back to Big Boss Mare with Brandy Von Holten! Let's meet Tony & Merry Kroeger with Heartland Eq Stables located in Sedalia, Missouri. Before the stables, they dove into a business called The Weed Zapper. This dynamic duo also pastor a church together where they have done everything from "preach, teach, and play bass" for over 30 years.
The world really is such a small place. Locally I was elected to our local health board in 2021. One of Tony & Merry's sons was elected in 2023 and also serves on the health board. I did not realize they were his parents until the day of this interview. Just goes to show that Tony and Merry are exceptional parents because I am a huge fan of them, their businesses, and the son, Mike.
I hope you enjoy getting to know Tony and Merry as much as I did by doing this podcast interview.
