🌾 Congratulations to Leo Morgan Wilcox, the 2026 Texas Rice Festival Young Farmer of the Year! 🌾

Born in 2005, Leo has been surrounded by his family’s rice farming operation his entire life. In 2024, the same year he graduated, Leo planted and harvested his first crop with the guidance and help of his father.

In 2025, Leo had the opportunity to acquire Beaumont Rice Mills, now operating as Sunset Milling. Alongside several close friends, he has been working hard to learn the operation and make great progress toward getting the mill back to 100%.

Leo is incredibly grateful to receive the honor of being named Young Farmer of the Year, and he gives special thanks to his dad, Taylor Wilcox, for the guidance, commitment, and support that helped bring him to this point.

We are proud to recognize Leo and celebrate the next generation of agriculture in our rice-growing community. Congratulations, Leo! 🌾💚💛
