About Dylan

Dylan was born on August 1, 2002  to Justin Rounds and Candice Cooley.  He is the oldest of their 3 children, who all grew up living the farming life.  Dylan loved it, he had big dreams to own and operate his own large farm.   In 2019 Dylan and his grandfather partnered on land in Lucin, Utah for Dylan to start working towards his dream.  He spent 2 summers getting his land ready to farm and in the spring of 2022 was finally ready to plant his first crop.  He worked late into the night on Friday, May 27th to get his seed planted before the rain came.  Saturday, May 28th morning he spoke with his grandmother and that would be the last time anyone spoke with him.
