GIL COWLES
Growing up with access to a farm is one of the greatest blessings in life. Gil R Cowles had that opportunity and set a goal at a very early age to always keep the family farm going. Both sets of his Grandparents lived and worked on their respective farms. He spent as much time aspossible on those farms during the first eighteen years of his life. Beef cattle, specificallyregistered Angus Beef cattle became his passion. He became a graduate of Western Kentucky University with a major in Animal Science Agriculture, found a job in ethical pharmaceuticals and went to work while continuing to build the beef cattle operation.In 1990, he acquired his Grandparents farm and increased the Angus beef cattle herd.In 1992, he married the love of his life, Mary Taylor and they began their farm life together.
