Ryan grew up on the Don-Sim Farm, and then as the farm expanded, he helped his dad, Bruce, and his mom on “Farm 2” in Sutton. Ryan and Marci purchased the “Farm 3” of the Don-Sim Farms, Burke View Dairies, from his aunt and uncle,  which is now Simpson Farm, where Kingdom Corn Maze is located. Marci helps out with the bookkeeping on the farm and also works part time as a nurse. The kids have each had a hand in working on the farm, and showing animals in 4-H. Colby continues to work on the farm, while Courteney works for Caledonia Central Supervisory Union and is finishing her masters degree.

Jessica grew up on Don-Sim Farm, milking cows, helping raise calves, and with cropping. Each of their kids play a role at Don-Sim Farm, whether it’s throwing hay bales, helping with daily chores, or hopping on the tractor to get the crops in. Their summers have also been filled with 4-H activities and showing at the local fair.  Phil works at a local construction company, and is a key player here at Kingdom Corn Maze and Jessica is employed at Sutton School.
