Elmore Family

Jennie & I might be some of the most passionate people about this industry. No, we’re not a million-dollar operation nor do we have 1000 head of cows on 10,000 acres but nearly everything we do revolves around show cattle. 

We love this industry & God has blessed us with show cattle as a way to provide for our family, serve others and do it all as a family. When it comes to our girls, My dad once said “are you raising cows or raising kids?” In our lives the cows are helping raise our kids!

My parents invested the time and money for me to be involved in this business & God has blessed me with the ability. I feel it’s an obligation for me to use what’s given to me to serve others.

I’m beyond blessed to have a wife & 2 girls to pursue this passion with.

The back of trailer & business cards have Proverbs 3 :5-6 on it. We strive to live by this.

Thanks,

Jason

Special people or events 

-I could never name just a few people. I was raised in the showbarns and have looked up to countless people and continue to learn from many of them 

-Jennie & the girls have probably shaped me as much as anyone. Jen keeps me focused and positive and the girls keep me driving for more

-Events...Countless shows. Being in the barns is home to me. We know more people at a show than we do in our home town. 

-NWSS, I think I’ve been there every year of my life.

-Winning our 1st National show (being Denver) It almost created an addiction, a drive and a passion to do it again and again 

-Watching our girls succeed in something they also love

Goals & Why

-We’re doing what we love & love what we do. We do it because we love it, we live & breath this business. Our goal is to continue with what we feel God has led us to do, use show cattle to raise our family & serve others. We hope it helps shape and mold our girls for what the future holds for them
