Allen and Briony, self-described rabbit show and rabbit history geeks, have long been contemplating a way to capture and share stories, lessons and inspiration with fellow hobbyists and the world at large. As Covid-19 shut down shows, fairs and much of this community’s ability to get together, they realized that a podcast could help. Both began as youth exhibitors and competitors, and went on to became ARBA judges and leaders in the rabbit and cavy industry. Their intent is to showcase guests and topics that will educate, entertain and inspire.

Both Briony and Allen are quick to boast that without having a local fair as an introduction to rabbits, neither of them would be here today. The same is true for many others. In this episode, Dr. Kim Miller and Nik Kieler, from the Orange County Fair, describe their role as livestock supervisors in one of the fastest urban-growing environments in the United States. They share the challenges and solutions they have developed to encourage exhibitors each year at the OC Fair, while being located in a demographic that is made up of anything but the like-minded farmer.
