Success Stories
Excellence by Everyday Improvement
The cattle business awards no trophies for participation. Nor does any rancher plan and work each day in hopes of wider recognition for doing things right. Yet caring for their land and livestock with a daily devotion to “excellence in practice” quietly switched a spotlight on JPM Farms. Jean-Paul and Marlene Monvoisin with their adult children, Colton Monvoisin and Josee Monvoisin-Garner, operate the quality-focused seedstock Angus ranch in the rolling hills near Parkbeg, Saskatchewan.

That continual pursuit of the best and finding the right people to help caught the attention of the world’s premium beef brand.
