Ep 275 | Nobody was making work pants for women — until a 25-year-old with no business experience moved to a town of 900 people and made them herself.

This week on Discover Ag, Natalie sits down with founder Sarah Calhoun to look back on 20 years of Red Ants Pants. From starting the brand in a small rural town to launching a music festival in a cow pasture, you'll learn how she's built the company to fit every woman and keep giving back to them.
