Shannon and Sarah met when he was clipping and fitting cattle for her sister and brother. In addition to her work in the show cattle business, Sarah has been employed by POET Biorefining for 15 years and is currently the quality manager at POET’s Chancellor plant. In 2007, Shannon and Sarah started marketing cattle from their current location just south of Lennox. Shannon said, “I started getting old enough that I thought we’d better have a place of our own for once instead of working for others our whole lives.” They run several dozen of their own cows, bred by artificial insemination, plus take in extra calves on a commission basis and halter-break them and sell them for customers. Their club-calf crossbreds use genetics from Simmental, Charolais, Angus and Chi’s. Voegele Show Cattle has two or three sales
Sarah and Shannon Voegele started Voegele Show Cattle in 2007.
