Vice-President

I'm Kenny Tremain. My Wife Sharon and I live 4 miles east of LaGrange. We farm and ranch the same place my great grandfather, Dr. David Tremain established in 1889. Our operation includes dry-land wheat and cattle. Much of farming and ranching operations have remained the same, but the business end has changed considerably. It is my desire to promote the farming industry and encourage others to get involved in it. Ken Tremain
