     Ashlyn Huff, an Iowa State University sophomore and 2021 Montezuma graduate, has been named the 2023 Iowa Meat Goat Association (IMGA) Ambassador.

     Each year,  IMGA members are asked to nominate a youth IMGA or Junior Iowa Meat Goat Association (JIMGA) member who has been involved in and exhibited excellence in the meat goat industry.
      “This award is meant to be recognition of a youth member who has exhibited excellence in the meat goat industry through their involvement throughout shows, events, etc.,” said Huff. 
      Huff is currently majoring in Animal Science at ISU with hopes of pursuing a career in embryology. She is actively involved in block and bridle, and the goat interest group on ISU’s campus, and is also serving as the vice president on the JIMGA Board this year.
     Huff and her family raise about 120 head of Boer goats on their farm south of Montezuma. They have been showing goats since 2013. She and her family show their goats competitively around the United States each year. Huff said she is super excited to serve the industry she is the most passionate about as this year's Ambassador.
      “I will participate in many events the JIMGA hosts throughout the year, attend events to hand out ribbons and awards, share my knowledge of the industry with everyone in the industry and beyond, and strive to be a leader in and out of the Boer goat industry,” said Huff.
        Huff will serve as the ambassador for one year.
