Kenny and Megan with children Braden and Kinsley are fixtures in Siskiyou County agriculture with Lassen Canyon Nursery and Elwood Ranches in Shasta and Butte Valley.
Organizations like the Siskiyou Golden Fair thrive because of community minded individuals that get involved for the good of all and Kenny has been a golden example of quietly serving the Siskiyou Golden Fair and our agricultural youth. “It takes the whole community to make our fairground thrive year-round,” stated CEO, Cliff Munson, “Kenny has always answered the call to support our cause.”
