At 26 years young, Sierra Seidner is the owner of Iron Horse Animal Health Products, a company that manufactures high-quality but affordable supplements and feed for horses and livestock like chickens, sheep, and cows.

She graduated from Westminster College with a degree in Financial Economics in December of 2018, but after taking her first accounting job, she knew that wasn’t the right career path for her.

In July 2021, she had the opportunity to purchase Iron Horse, an established company that had been in business since 1967, from founder Dr. David Swaney and left her office job to pursue the more fitting and exciting lifestyle of being an entrepreneur. Along with running Iron Horse and going on the many trips that it requires, Sierra also enjoys training and racing standardbred harness racing horses.

Liberty stayed the same, year after year—a name you knew and a reputation you could depend on. In the hundred or so years since, the green Liberty stripe became a badge of honor and pride in the country and county road stretches of rural America. Patents expire over time, but traditions and history don’t. And while there may be other bib overall brands on the market today, there’s only one Liberty.

Liberty is about living free. Remaining true to yourself and the qualities that drive you.​

With us, what you see is what you get. We won’t sugarcoat it, and we won’t pander to fleeting style trends pretending to be something we’re not. We make a pair that has done the job for a hundred years. It was good enough for them and it’s good enough for us. ​

Liberty is about unwavering quality and craftsmanship built to take on every task, every day. We respect folks who tell it like it is—even if it takes them some time to get to the point. So we’re telling you that our bib overalls are tough enough for your task. They work for farming the traditional way. They work for painting giant small-town murals. They work for backwoods engineering. They work for slow-smoking ribs. They work for hunting alligators in the Louisiana swamps. Heck, they even work for raising backyard chickens.
