ECO was made in Montana...by, for and from Montana producers!

A third of President Heilig's Farm got hailed out and due to hail and crop insurance, his farm will be able to carry on the Montana way of life. As the President of Montana Grain Grow...

The Sheffels Farm primarily grows wheat and barley and just starting to get into pulse crops. It is vitally important that we share our stories in order to educate our neighbors and decision makers on where our food comes from.

After 20 years of working as an electrical en...
