Meet the Farmer

Willie Lindquist, Lost River Rice Farm
Willie and his wife, Sue, farm the original land his grandparents homesteaded in the Kelliher/Waskish area. The Lindquist family first got involved in growing wild rice when Willie’s father, William, Sr., leased 40 acres and contracted with Uncle Ben’s in 1968. Willie worked with his father on the wild rice and beef farm throughout high school. After graduation, he attended technical school for auto body repair, which is where he met his future wife Sue, originally from Fosston, MN. After they were married, they moved back to the family farm and built a house where they live today. Willie and Sue have three children: Nicole, Allen, and Donald. Allen is farming with Willie, making him the fourth generation of Linquists farming this land. Together they farm nearly 1,000 acres of wild rice and soybeans.
