Meyer Family
The Meyer family has been rooted on their southeast Minnesota farm since 1937, when George Meyer bought the land and started milking cows. Four generations later, the farm looks a little different, but the commitment to agriculture and stewarding the land is just as strong.
Today, Jordan and his dad Lee manage the dairy, milking around 140 cows each day. Meanwhile, Jordan, Rachelle, and their kids, Natalie, Layne, Ashton, Gabe, Kade and Layla, work together to run the sheep, goats, beef cattle and custom grazing operations. They rotate animals through the pasture, fix fences, feed livestock and work to keep everything running smoothly.
The Meyers place a strong focus on soil health, using cover crops, rotational grazing and other regenerative practices to care for the land. They believe in doing everything for the glory of God.
Beyond daily chores, Jordan and Rachelle open up their farm to others, hosting grazing schools, leading pasture walks and sharing their experiences on YouTube. For them, it is not just about raising animals. It is about learning, growing and helping others along the way.
