Welcoming The New Nevada YF&R Chair

I'm Monica Avery! I’m so excited to be the new Nevada Farm Bureau Young Farmers and Ranchers (YF&R) State Chair! I have served two 2-year positions as the Nevada District 3 Representative and now am lucky enough to finish out my time in the YF&R program as the State Chair.

I am a fourth-generation farmer and rancher. My dad and I run our family's centennial farm in Churchill County. We run 300+ pair of cattle and farm just over 1000 acres to produce our own hay for our needs.

Outside of working on the ranch I am the office manager for a local hay sales company.

I have two beautiful daughters: Rylee and Makenzie and an amazing husband, Preston. I love to coach softball, cheerleading and helping with our local 4H.

I love the friendships and relationships I have been able to build through Farm Bureau and the valuable leadership skills it has taught me so far.

I look forward to growing the YF&R program over the next few years and hope you join me on the adventure. If interested in learning more about the YF&R program, please contact Brittney Money at brittney@nvfb.org. We would love to have you join us.
