Welcome Our New Staff Member

4/19/23 by Tricia Kimmel

PJ and I feel privileged to introduce you to the newest member of our team!  Meet Cora Knowles, who is joining us as our Executive Assistant.  Cora has a passion for agriculture and conservation, and she will be partnering with us to move all our different enterprises to the next level!

Cora will eventually be moving to Turner from Malta, Montana, where she currently resides with her two dogs Sara and Conway.  However, she has called many places home, having grown up in a family that often moved for work.  A graduate of University of Wyoming at Laramie, her previous roles with the Montana Association of Conservation Districts (NRCS) and Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks have equipped her well to help us move toward our lofty goals here with Kimmel Ranch and Wholesome Beef Direct.  She also sits on the Conservation Committee for Ranchers Stewardship Alliance.

In addition to her professional experience, she also loves to garden, quilt, teaches swing dance lessons, and has even earned a crown as the INT’L SUPER Ms and Colorado’s SUPER Miss for the America’s SUPER Pageant organization. 

Please help us welcome Cora to the Kimmel Ranch team and keep watching for exciting updates and developments ahead!
