June Hilbert
June Hilbert grew up in Burlingame, Kansas, a small town southwest of Topeka, the state capital. After graduating from high school, she attended Emporia State University and Kansas State University. Indecision about her future led her to leave those hallowed halls of academia in 1974 and seek her first and only full-time job at a financial institution in Topeka. Several years later, June met her future husband, Bill, a part-time farmer who worked full-time for the Kansas Department of Agriculture. He wooed her with a head of broccoli larger in diameter than a dinner plate. Three years later, her internship as a farm wife began. June retired from her city job in 2012. She and Bill and their golden retriever, Cricket, live on a 160-acre farm in northeast Kansas, where they run a cow/calf operation. She is proud she can build a fire in the wood furnace without burning down the house, and navigate a farm truck pulling a loaded hay trailer over field terraces without high-centering. June claims her next-favorite gift from Bill, after the head of broccoli, was a shiny, red hay hook.
