The Nebraska Soil Health Coalition (NSHC) proudly recognized Jenny Brhel, University of Nebraska–Lincoln Extension Educator, as the first-ever recipient of the Alan Moeller Pillar Award during the Green Cover Nexus Conference held Wednesday, February 11, in Omaha.
The Alan Moeller Pillar Award honors individuals who serve as foundational leaders in advancing soil health through collaboration, innovation, and dedication to Nebraska’s agricultural communities.
Brhel was selected for her instrumental role in developing and supporting many of NSHC’s most impactful partnerships and outreach efforts.
“Jenny has been a driving force behind unique and effective collaborations that strengthen soil health initiatives across the state,” said NSHC leadership. “Her work exemplifies the spirit of this award and the legacy of Alan Moeller.”
Brhel’s contributions through Extension education and coalition-building have helped expand soil health practices and farmer-led engagement throughout Nebraska.
