Ken MacKenzie left his family farm to go to the University of Guelph, but the farm never really left him. He has spent a career in agribusiness, working in the livestock feed manufacturing sector. Looking back on his success as a businessman, family man, and community member, Ken felt compelled to trace his origins and share the lessons that have been a guiding force in his life.

Ken lives with Joy, his wife of nearly fifty years, in a country home on Cultus Lake, BC. They have a loyal, friendly Labradoodle named Angus. Their son and daughter live in nearby Abbotsford, and they have six wonderful grandchildren who challenge them to think, learn, and grow.
