Congratulations to the Joseph Stack Family for being recognized for their outstanding dream and hard work through the years, a wonderful family to call friends!
We are proud to announce that Joseph and Elizabeth Stacks have been selected as the 2026 Columbia County Farm Bureau Farm Family of the Year. The Stacks Family operates Stacks Family Farms in Taylor, where they run a diverse and growing operation that includes a cow calf herd, sheep program, and hay production.
Their livestock program is built on quality and intentional management. The family markets calves and breeding stock through a combination of private treaty sales and local livestock auctions, and they raise 50–80 lambs annually for seed stock, show projects, and farm to table sales. They also maintain honeybee hives for pollination and small batch honey production, and they utilize dairy goats and nurse cows to efficiently raise orphan lambs and calves.
Agriculture is a family effort for the Stacks. Their children, Julieann and Holland, are involved in FFA, 4 H, showing livestock, and agricultural leadership. Julieann recently served as the 2025–2026 Arkansas FFA State President, and Holland is the current Taylor FFA Chapter President. Both have earned numerous agricultural honors and each continues to build impressive Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) programs. Beyond FFA, they are active in their church, community leadership programs, and junior livestock associations.
The Stacks family began their farming journey in 2018 with a desire to raise their children around livestock and agricultural values. What started with 24 acres and a small group of sheep has grown into a multifaceted, well managed operation built on hard work, innovation, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
Please join us in congratulating the Stacks family on this well-deserved honor.
