8th Generation Farm Family in Shelbyville, KY: Tucker Farms

Sugar Creek Ag • February 11, 2026

Ray and Stephanie Tucker and their son Nathan farm 5000 acres in north central Kentucky, an 8th generation farm family.

The attention to soil health has been there throughout. “My grandfather said we need to take care of the land so it can take care of us and future generations and that has been our focus. We utilize Earthquake Liquid Humic and Sweet ‘n’ Loam to help us achieve the yields we want.” 


“The foliar products from Sugar Creek Ag allow us to push yields when conditions allow. We had some wheat last year that the insurance adjuster estimated was about 30 bushels, we pushed it throughout the season and it averaged well above 80 bushels!” 


The Tucker family is also very involved with The Battle of The Bluegrass Pulling Series, and you can find Ray and Nathan aboard “Blood, Sweat, and Gears” at the Full Pull Line!
