JOHNSON COUNTY– Johnson County supervisor Democratic candidate Mike Carberry traces his ambition back to his roots.
The son of a large animal veterinarian and a school teacher, Carberry grew up on a small farm in Benton County.
“I spent a lot of time on small family farms from my dad, and I learned a real conservation ethic from those farmers,” said Carberry. He mentions his participation in Boy Scouts and earning the rank of Eagle Scout as another influence.
