Mimi VanderVeen was the guest speaker at the SCC Learning Center in Nebraska City's Mindful Aging Class with instructor Kathy Perkins. Mimi shared how she went from College Graduate to partnering with husband Kiel, to build a successful business. Even a fire, that nearly destroyed the business, couldn't stop this couple from fulfilling their efforts to bring this unique opportunity to the Nebraska City Community and the surrounding Nebraska areas.

Kiel VanderVeen and his wife Mimi built one of just two freshwater Atlantic Salmon farms in the nation, breaking ground in 2020 on their land in Nebraska City. It’s a system of 100,000 gallons of recirculating water in several recycled grain silo tanks.

In addition, they constructed a greenhouse full of eight types of salad greens, which thrive off the wastewater of the salmon — a natural fertilizer. The plants float on top of the water in a soilless system.

They named the business Nebraska Vegetable and Protein. It’s a dream that benefits the whole community. It’s jobs, affordable food, healthy food,” said Mimi, a teacher by trade, who handles much of the paperwork and marketing of the business. The class really enjoyed learning about this extraordinary accomplishment of two successful Nebraska City Community members.
