24/7 Dairy Operation

  • Herd number is around 1200 cows

  • We produce more than137,000 pounds or 16,000 gallons of milk per day

  • We have yearly on-farm auditing of animal handling and management practices to ensure animal practices are current and top-notch

 

Nutrition

  • 2 different rations made up of a combination of corn or corn silage and different varieties of hay, plant-based proteins and vitamins and minerals

  • Each ration is specific to cow’s requirements for the amount of milk she is producing

  • Cows are fed once per day which will last them 24 hours

 

Cow Comfort

  • Cows live in free stall barns that are climate controlled to ensure maximum comfort

  • Cows lay on sand to keep them clean and help keep them cool or warm depending on time of year

  • Cows are free to roam about, eat, drink, sleep and chat with their other cow friends
