Hi, I am Matthew Noggle. I am married with 3 wonderful kids Emerson, Brigham, and Everett. I am the 6th generation on my family farm in Manchester, MI. We have a Sim-Angus commercial cow calf operation and a small feedlot. We market most of our cattle directly to consumers through Noggle Farms Premium Beef. We supply our hometown grocery store and neighboring town meat market as well as about 6 restaurants currently.
I graduated from Colorado State University with a bachelor’s degree in Ag Business. There I was on various judging teams and clubs. After college I was hired as an Ag Lender for the Bank of Colorado in Yuma, CO. I spent 4.5 years there working with large feedlots and row crop operations. At the end of 2016 my wife and I moved back to Michigan to be closer to the family farm. In Jan. of 2017 I started working as a commercial lender for a local community bank and spearheaded their Ag Lending campaign. I spent 5 years there as a commercial and ag lender. I then had the opportunity to work for Rabo Agrifinance as Ag Lender covering the state of Michigan. However, I now pursue my real passion for truly helping the farmer without worrying about the constraints of the bank's ever-changing demands. I am just glad I am now able to work for a company who has the farmer first mentality, and I get to do my favorite part of banking, meeting with clients and helping them succeed and be profitable.
When I am not working cows or in my office, you can find me near a grill somewhere. I love cooking out on the grill or smoker.
