Our beginnings
A small start.
A lasting commitment.
Browning Seed, Inc. found its humble beginnings when father-son duo Hollis and Jeane Browning decided to start selling forage seed. Their vision was simple: provide quality seed and dependable service to help growers be successful. That same commitment continues to guide our family today.

Today
The next generation grows with us
The Browning family continues its work in seed, research and service to growers.
The people behind the seed
One family.
A shared love for the land.
Browning Seed has a rich history of being a family business with Jeane’s sons, Lee, continuing the business and carrying that torch onward as the 3rd generation of seed specialists. In recent years, Jeane’s grandchildren have also found a love for the seed industry with Kenzi and Jace Browning joining the company as well.
We hope to serve you just like Jeane and Hollis did in the past, just like family.
