Meet Michael and Christy Springer

The Springer family started raising hogs in the late 1940s with Michael’s grandparents, Lee and Dorothy. Today, Michael’s parents, Chuck and Debbie, and aunt and uncle, Dale and Judy, also farm. In 2008, the four families joined together in a partnership to make Springer Family Foods.

Michael and Christy stay pretty busy around the farm and very busy raising their boys. Michael says his hope for his children is that they become more involved in the farm as they grow up. Christy's role on the farm is updating records on the animals and working in the community. Michael says connecting their community to their farm is very important to them.
