Cedar Hollow Rabbitry is a multi-breed operation located in suburban Kansas City.  A high school student, I represent a fourth generation of agriculturalists.  My great-grandfathers tilled their farm fields with horses and mules.  My grandpa served in the military during World War II, later earning a veterinary degree and returning to the small Missouri river town where he grew up to open his practice.  And my father is a long time veteran of the livestock publishing field.  Raising livestock is in my blood.

          At Cedar Hollow Rabbitry, we’re committed to learning about genetics, feeding, and breeding as well as maintaining cutting edge herd health programs and animal husbandry practices.  In addition to the best of feeds, our facility boasts a strong ventilation system to which we attribute our great health results.  We even play the radio 24 hours a day … nothing is spared to maximize comfort for Cedar Hollow rabbits.

          Cedar Hollow which began in 2003 simply as a 4-H rabbit project has expanded my horizons as I became involved in 4-H, the largest youth organization in America.  Public speaking, sewing, summer camp counseling and leadership development represent some of my other 4-H activities.
