Tell us more about your agricultural experiences:
- I was very involved with 4-H and FFA when I was younger. My partner and I have been raising sheep, poultry, and cattle for the last 6 years. We are now at the point where we feel confident about our program and would like to expand.
My grandfather was a butcher and I spent a lot of time as a child around the meat industry. I feel as though it was the time that I was able to spend with my grandpa which really solidified my interest in ranching and meat animal production.
I have been working for a veterinarian since 2014 and have been able to learn and develop advanced animal husbandry skills that I believe will help me succeed as a rancher.
My partner has 15+ years of experience in grain farming and ideally, we would find a farm where we could raise both crops and livestock.
How many acres are you currently farming/ranching? 60
Please briefly describe what you grow or raise currently: Angus/Hereford beef cattle, Dorper/Katahdin hair sheep, chickens, guineas, geese, quail, ducks. Additionally, I breed ABCA Border Collies and we have three horses.
