WHO WE ARE
SCOTT RICE, Co-Founder & President
"Ground to fork. It's where I'm from, what I love, and why I do what I do."
Growing up in West Central Wisconsin on a farm Scott learned the virtues of natural/organic firsthand in the ways they grew vegetables and raised animals. Literally "ground to fork." Little did he know at the time his family was becoming part of the Midwest Organic movement that was gaining momentum 30 years ago in what is called the Driftless area.
This is where companies like Organic Valley, Westby Creamery and GoMacro are headquartered today and is home to the popular La Crosse and Viroqua Co-ops. Living in a small and tight community instilled many values that he carries with him today - Integrity, Honesty, Caring, Appreciation, Respect, Dedication, Effort and Unity - that all goes along with his hard work ethic. Farming is not easy, especially when doing it the right way!
Sarah Breunig, Co-Founder & General Manager
"Anything casserole and I'm there...but add the cheese and that's pure love for me."
As a Madison native, Sarah has always appreciated the value of good quality food. She grew up surrounded by food and loved all the restaurants, natural markets and grocery stores in her hometown that showcased local farmers.
In 2012, when the opportunity to become a Recruiter in the natural products industry arose, she thought to herself, "not only will I get to help people find jobs, I will be contributing to the vastly important health & wellness movement!"
SARA RICE, Director of Client Success
"Rooted in farm life, guided by simple ingredients, and forever drawn to what’s real.”
Sara grew up in rural Wisconsin on a hobby farm, where open fields and homegrown food shaped her lifelong belief in the power of a healthy lifestyle. Those formative experiences instilled a deep appreciation for simple ingredients, hard work, and intentional living, values she carries forward today as she raises her own family.
Helping people has always been at the heart of Sara’s life and career. With more than 20 years of experience in client services and relationship leadership, she is known for building authentic connections, guiding others with confidence, and bringing a thoughtful, people-first approach to everything she does.

Raised on the belief that honesty and hard work are the foundations of a good life, I brought my Midwestern roots to Natural Careers. This mindset helps me in recruiting to find dedicated talent while valuing integrity and reliability in the process. I believe in building deep, lasting relationships rather than just transactional connections.
I am a seasoned recruiter with over 10 years of dedicated experience in national hiring for corporate and manufacturing operational roles and my approach is service focused, personal and high touch. I am committed to exceeding expectations and working with efficiency and communication.
I am thrilled to be working with Natural Careers and joining them in their passion for supporting companies helping us all to build a healthier future.
