Rachel Gray owns Little Timber Farms at Blackduck, Minnesota. Rachel is president-elect of the Minnesota State Cattlemen’s Association and her farm won the environmental stewardship award at CattleCon ’25. “They awarded Little Timber Farms the award, but really the award would go back generations,” said Gray. “My grandpa came home from World War II and was a huge believer in conservation. He made the commitment to join our local Soil and Water Board. He was a district two supervisor, which I now hold that seat so that’s kind of a unique thing too.” In the interview, Rachel talks about the transition from being a teacher to farming full-time.
