Miami Couple Named As Manitoba's Top Young Farmers

The Manitoba's Outstanding Young Farmer's Awards Banquet was held in Brandon over the weekend.
 
Andre and Katie Steppler of Miami, MB have been named as the province's top young farmers.
 
The pair manage the cattle division at Steppler Farms.
 
Andre had these thoughts on winning the award.
 
"We're extremely honoured to be able to receive this award. All the nominees that were across Manitoba are such great innovative young farmers and just to be in that field with them is such an honour."
 
Steppler Farms focuses on value adding the cattle enterprise through raising purebred livestock. Along with managing a large herd, much of their family time is spent travelling across North America promoting the farm and advocating agriculture through judging, showing cattle at local, provincial and national shows as well as speaking at conferences across Canada.
