Kaitlin Balfe is the Video Editor and Videographer for The Yankee Farm Wife, and Locket's Meadow Farm Sanctuary as well. She is a graduate of The School of Film and Media at SUNY Purchase College, and a long time lover of animals. She came to Locket's Meadow almost two years ago, and has since become completely obsessed with all of the animals, so much so that she now acts as a Barn Manager of sorts. 

Kaitlin has a long history of activism and speaking loudly for what she believes to be right. In elementary school, she earned the nickname "Garbage Girl," because she'd spend recesses picking up litter around the school yard. Also in elementary school, her and some friends protested the building of a parking lot on half of their recess field, and were threatened to be suspended. They paved the kickball paradise and put up a parking lot... She also worked hard volunteering on media teams in 2020 during the election with local politicians, and on the national scale as well to ensure the eviction of 45. 

Kathleen and Kaitlin have known one another for years, and are utterly shocked every day at the success of YFW, and the community we've built with Meemaw's Unite. 

She looks forward to continuing to put her Bachelor's to use and grow this channel and their impact!
