Meet The Leeper Family

Leeper Family Farms is a 6th-generation farm in Central Illinois. We grow corn, soybeans, wheat, hay, and raise Angus backgrounded beef cattle. Our family has farmed the ground we are still walking on since the 1840s. My goal, as a young farmer, is to build upon what the previous generations have left in my care. We are constantly improving our conservation practices, stewardship, and efficiency.

Farming isn’t the only legacy in the family; military service has long been a part of this family’s identity, with ancestors serving in every major conflict from the Revolutionary War to Vietnam.

For veteran Evan Leeper, the uniform may have changed, but the commitment to serve remains the same.
