Larry Primeaux: Game Warden, Guardsman and Cattleman
Description
Larry and Ellie Primeaux, first-generation cattle farmers in Mississippi, balance full-time careers with raising Angus and Brangus cattle. Larry, a dedicated game warden and K-9 handler with the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks, brings his deep knowledge of local wildlife to their cattle operation. Ellie, a passionate 5th-grade teacher, integrates agriculture into the classroom, educating the next generation about farming and rural life. Larry and Ellie offer real-life insights into modern cattle farming plus the challenges and rewards of starting from scratch. They discuss how Larry’s law enforcement and military career often take him away from the farm for long stretches, but how fulfilling it is to serve their community and country. Larry and Ellie have taken advantage of opportunities for beginning producers and see value in meeting peers in the industry and furthering their education.
