Cameron Gormly

Cameron started with us in 2017. He is our muscle man! He stocks more feed than anyone and hauls out all the heavy things for customers. Cameron is one of our servicemen on the rental equipment, and continues to learn the in's and out's of the backroom. He is always willing to do whatever we ask!

Shelby Smith

Shelby has been working remotely for us since 2019. As HJ & Kristi's daughter, she grew up working along side her family in the Beloit store and all her in-store experience makes the remote work possible! She handles all accounts payable, payroll, social media accounts, and has a extensive background in HR. It's great she can be a part of the family business all the way from Australia!

Steve Donker

Steve has been working two days a week since 2014. He retired from the Feed Lot and just needed a little something to do. He is our organizer! He keeps the stock rooms clean and tidy, and stays busy all the time. We can call on him anytime to fill in where needed!

Bennett Bell

When Bennett joined our team in 2002, he brought a lot of farm and mechanical knowledge with him. He was raised on a farm and continues to farm in his off-time. He knows our rental equipment inside and out, and can repair almost anything! He has been a wonderful asset to our store.

Troy Hawk

Troy joined our team with years of experience in custom carpentry and sales. He joined our team to stay closer to home and to ditch his daily commute to the city, but brings his attention to detail to work every day. Nothing gets past this guy with managing inventory, displays, and back stock in our warehouse.  We're also lucky enough to have him create a custom display pieces for the store!
