2018

I didn't want to let January slip past without posting an update ...

We had such a cold, cold month.  When it's cold, everything is harder to do, but it still gets done! 

The pasture looks a little bit different in the winter, but then it was in the 50s a few times, and we saw for sure it's green under there.

The last of the calves are still being born.  Kittens and calves ... always cute.

We have farm team training sessions, and at this one we had Domino's Pizza.  In part because it's good and there's a new one in our town, and partly because they are really into celebrating dairy!

Kris and I have also been to many meetings, because winter is meeting season on dairy farms.  Local milk co-op meetings, board meetings, and meetings in far off places!

The dairy industry has had a tough few last years, and this year isn't looking like it's going to be great either.  We have high hopes, we have a great team, and we hope everyone - especially in Michigan - is enjoying some dairy products today!
