About Us

Welcome to 195 Industries. We are a family owned and operated business having sold Vermeer out of our home for 22 years along with farming and raising registered black Angus cattle. We have been blessed to raise 3 healthy hard working boys who love farm life and cattle. 

Although the good Lord likes to test us on a daily basis with weather changes, break downs and the cows thinking the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, we feel that if we can take on these challenges with humor and grace we become better people. We are fourth generation on the family farm. 

Our Great Grandfather left Germany and worked his way on a boat arriving in New York in 1871. He worked two years as a butcher for $8.00 a month, saving enough money to buy a train ticket to California. He then worked for a farmer for $2.00 a day, eventually made his way up to Spokane, Washington. He established the homestead in 1886 and became a citizen of the United States and felt so blessed to be in America. He was married and long story short had 11 children. 

You could say we are starting a new adventure in our lives by moving our business from our home to a new location on Hwy. 195 outside of Spangle, Washington. The boys are thrilled to be a part of this new adventure and have many wonderful ideas for the future. 

Thank you for taking the time to read our story, hope you enjoyed some of our history.
