This month, we want to introduce everyone to our long time employee, Guillermo Garcia.  Guillermo started working at Moriah Ranch in 2013, as a seasonal H2A worker. It was soon evident that he possessed many talents for ranching and certainly had a passion for it. After several years of returning in the Spring and leaving in the Fall, we realized he was the perfect candidate for a green card. It was a long slow process , but finally he was approved! We couldn't do what we do without him. He can operate any piece of equipment and is always a friendly helper to our hay customers. He has become a great mechanic and isn't afraid to tackle anything from an engine overhaul to rebuilding  a tractor. He's our behind the scenes hero, and an invaluable employee here.

 We took the opportunity to ask him a few questions about his life and give everyone insight on who he is.

~ Where were you born?  "I was born in Puruandiro, Michoacán Mexico."

~ Why did you want to come to the United States?  "I came to the United States for better life opportunities ."

~ What do you like about living here? "I like the cultural diversity here."

~ What do you miss the most from home? " I miss my family."

~ What is your favorite season on the ranch? "I like the Summer & Fall the best."

~ What is your least favorite job on the ranch? "I do NOT like feeding in blizzard conditions! I don't like hay in my face or socks!"

~ What is your favorite food? " Definitely tamales!"

~ What are your hobbies? " I enjoy leather crafting and fly fishing."

Whether you're coming here for a visit or to buy hay, please take the time to meet Guillermo!
