Welcome Mitch Hilger: Red Cedar Irrigation's New Irrigation Manager

Red Cedar Ag • October 21, 2026

As Red Cedar Ag continues to grow with the addition of Red Cedar Irrigation, we're excited to introduce Mitch Hilger, our new Irrigation Manager!


Originally from Bloomer, Wisconsin, Mitch graduated from Bloomer High School and has spent much of his career working in agriculture and construction. For him, irrigation brings together the best of both worlds.


"I've worked in agriculture or construction most of my life, and irrigation is a good mix of both," Mitch shared.


Keeping Growers Up and Running


As Irrigation Manager, Mitch will have a hand in just about everything, from scheduling service calls and installations to ordering parts, managing inventory, providing quotes, and working directly with customers.


His favorite part of the job? Helping growers get their equipment back up and running, whether that be a part they need or scheduling a service appointment.


Mitch knows that when irrigation equipment goes down, growers need answers and solutions, not more headaches. That's why he's focused on keeping parts organized, service calls coordinated, and communication clear between customers and technicians.

Building the Red Cedar Irrigation Team


With Red Cedar Irrigation getting off the ground, Mitch is looking forward to helping build a dependable team that growers can count on. His goal is to help create a smooth, reliable service experience, making sure customers have the parts, equipment, and support they need when they need it.


Beyond the Field


When he's not working, you'll likely find Mitch outdoors. He's an avid deer hunter who enjoys taking a few out-of-state hunting trips each year. This year, he's headed to Canada for a mule deer hunt and Kansas for whitetail hunting.


One of his favorite ways to spend his free time is shed hunting with his dog, Mabel.

Welcome to the Team, Mitch!


We're excited to have Mitch on board as we continue growing Red Cedar Irrigation and expanding the services we offer growers.


Please join us in welcoming Mitch Hilger to the Red Cedar Ag team!
