Muskogee County couple win award
Muskogee County’s Jon and Natalie Leeds were named Oklahoma Farm Bureau YF&R; Achievement Award winner at the 68th annual convention in Oklahoma City.
The YF&R; Achievement Award honors the state’s top young farmer or farm family for their achievements in the farming business and their leadership in the agricultural community. A panel of judges selected the Webbers Falls couple for the award.
They received an expense-paid trip to the 2010 American Farm Bureau convention in Seattle, Wash., to represent Oklahoma in the national contest. As the Oklahoma winner, the Leeds received a year’s use of a Dodge pickup and a WW Livestock Equipment squeeze chute.
Jon, 34, and Natalie, 32, have two children, Jenna, 4, and Blake, 1.
They operate 1,500 acres near Webbers Falls where they have irrigated and dryland corn, irrigated soybeans and irrigated wheat. Jon also is a sales rep for Pioneer Hi-Bred Seed Company.
