S2E11 Chelsey, Golden Hour Farm, Highland Cow Farm in Utah, Mother + Wife, First Generation Farming + Lifestyle

In this episode of You’d Be Surprised, Chelsie and Becka interview Chelsey, who shares her journey from a dance-focused childhood in Utah to living eight years in Europe while her husband, Spencer, played professional basketball. After returning to the U.S. during COVID, they bought land in Utah and built Golden Hour Farm, starting with Highland cows and expanding into horses, genetics, and agritourism with trail rides. Chelsey reflects on the challenges of being first-generation farmers, balancing motherhood, and the emotional weight of raising animals. She also talks about how their Instagram presence grew quickly, drawing people into their lifestyle, and even led to opportunities like having their cows featured on a TV show. The episode highlights Chelsey’s love of animals, the confidence and purpose farming has given her, and her family’s vision of becoming nationally recognized Highland cow breeders.
