She's an expert in animal behavior, an internationally famous spokesperson for autism.
This week, she came to Locust Trace Agro Science Center in Fayette County to pass her wisdom on to the next generation.
So working on things, you've got to be able to observe.
What is it pointing fingers at?
What is it?
What is She values young people in an agriculture and spends her time traveling.
She's 76 years old.
And this is and that was the answer to one of her questions.
You know, is I am here to help the future.
Get young people interested in how do we really be able to fix things, make things right.
You know, the ones who are going.
To have to do more.
And she also advocates for different thinkers.
She is autistic and she thinks she calls herself a visual thinker, while.
Always an unreasonable patience.
We're sorry that this is much more of a was the revolution.
And then you have the more mathematical people that they can pass.
And so she can relate to students that have different gifts.
We all don't have to be the same.
And I think she talks on both those platforms.
And I think it just resonates with everybody yelling and.
Screaming and whistling.
And as.
Those animals, you know, they get mad at them.
I really enjoyed her speech and I really saw different a different perspective and some of the things she was talking about.
Like I didn't really realize that, like, for example, having dogs around the cattle would be a bit of an issue.
I learned a lot of cool things that I didn't really think about.
Here's a very clever way to get Mabel to move forward, and she quickly was battered by it in the opposite direction.
Can I ask you, what was this wall back line in the opposite direction.
Try to hit the next iron.
Working.
Walking.
I really enjoyed listening to her.
I didn't really know much about her before I started, before I heard from her, but I really enjoyed hearing from her and it made me really kind of think about switching up some of our cattle shoot and like make the cows less stressed.
And some some of the things we do to make a move.
I learned a lot.
That's really cool.
You want to use following things.
Locust Trees is really a unique school.
We are situated on 88 acres, so students get a lot of hands on experience and we have ten ag teachers here in the building, so it's the only one in Fayette County.
I think it's important because in Fayette County we're very urbanized, obviously, and we need to be advocating for agriculture.
I think we lack a lot of appreciation of where our stuff comes from food wise.
And I think if people more realize where their food comes from, how hard it is to make the time farmers put in to making it, they appreciate it a lot more.
Hear, hear.
Grandin, who says she sees her autism as an asset, is in Kentucky for an autism awareness conference.
