New Guy in the Shop: Cameras, Cattle, and More Farm4Profit!

The New Year brings new energy to the Farm4Profit team—and this Farm4Fun episode is all about introductions.

In this episode of the Farm4Profit Podcast, we officially welcome Cody Vanderholm as the newest member of Farm4Profit, stepping into the role of Project and Digital Media Manager.

Cody is based in Stanton, Iowa, and brings a rare combination of agriculture roots, hands-on industry experience, and creative vision that fits perfectly with where Farm4Profit is headed next.

From the Show Ring to the Field

Cody’s ag story started early. He grew up showing cattle and remains actively involved in Vanderholm Cattle Company, working alongside his dad to help serve 4-H and FFA families with Angus and Simmental breeding stock. That lifelong exposure to livestock, youth programs, and family farming helped shape how Cody views agriculture—not just as an industry, but as a community.

A Career Built Across Agriculture & Technology

Before joining Farm4Profit, Cody built a diverse resume across agriculture, equipment, precision ag, and marketing. His career includes roles with companies like Titan Machinery, HTS Ag, and AlffCo, giving him firsthand experience with:

  • Equipment sales and support

  • Precision agriculture technology

  • Ag-focused marketing and content creation

  • Working directly with farmers and ag businesses

Along the way, Cody also launched and grew Vanderholm Media, blending his technical background with a creative eye for storytelling.

Cameras, Drones, and Creative Ag Storytelling

This episode dives into Cody’s creative passions that extend well beyond a traditional ag career. We talk about:

  • How Vanderholm Media got started—and how it evolved

  • Photography and videography in agriculture

  • Drone work and aerial storytelling

  • Capturing tractor pulls, air shows, and farm life

  • Light painting and experimental photography

  • His fascination with weather, travel, and visual storytelling

If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to visually capture agriculture in a way that feels authentic, dynamic, and human—this conversation delivers.

Why Farm4Profit Was the Right Fit

The episode wraps with a look at what excites Cody most about joining Farm4Profit. From behind-the-scenes production to helping shape future content, Cody shares how he sees Farm4Profit continuing to grow—and how storytelling, media, and technology will play a major role in that evolution.

This Farm4Fun episode is equal parts introduction, behind-the-scenes, and celebration—giving listeners a chance to meet the person who’ll be helping shape the future of Farm4Profit content.

Welcome to the team, Cody—and welcome to the New Year.
