Barnswallows are nimble and persistent just like Meredith Numnikoven, the chief innovator at Barnswallow Flowers in rural Iowa. From the flower fields, this 5th generation farmer steps into the world of product design and innovation to solve a problem that is right under her nose every day. She doesn't stop there either. Despite concerns about repercussions, Meredith traveled to the Hill for three days to let policymakers know they were leaving some of the most important people out of the discussion. This episode is full of inspiring small actions that make a big difference that you can learn from and apply in different ways in your own community.
