GARRETT HORTON grew up on a farm north of Riverton, WY. Throughout his youth on the farm, a passion for agriculture was cultivated. In college, he pursued a degree in Agribusiness at the University of Wyoming. He recognized the farm he grew up on and loved so much was not large enough to come back to immediately following college.
While he was still searching for a career coming out of school, he fell into an internship with Farm Credit Services of America. He enjoyed working with production agriculture through agricultural lending and pursued that path with Farm Credit Services of America with his first role as an associate in the corporate headquarters in Omaha, NE. After a short stint there he relocated with the company to northwest Wyoming as a Financial Officer where he has remained in that role for going on 14 years now.
Here he met his wife Katie, started his family and purchased his first farm. He now has a family of 3 boys: Jack (5), Connor (2), and Owen (5 months) and farms alongside his partner Armando Rios with the help of his uncle and cousin. Additionally, he and his two brothers run a cow calf herd together headquartered back on the farm he grew up on.
