Judith McGeary

Judith McGeary is an attorney, activist, and sustainable farmer. After earning her Bachelors of Science from Stanford University and her law degree with high honors from the University of Texas at Austin, she clerked for a Federal Appeals Court and went on to private law practice. During that time, she became a passionate advocate of sustainable agriculture, and she and her husband established their own livestock farm.
After seeing how government regulations benefit industrial agriculture at the expense of family farms, she founded the Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance (FARFA) to promote common-sense policies for local, diversified agricultural systems. Judith served as the Vice Chair of the U.S. Secretary’s Advisory Committee on Animal Health and, in addition to running FARFA, currently serves on the Board of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund and the Advisory Board of the Weston A. Price Foundation.
