Milk Cows

Our milk cows head to the parlor 3 times a day, and enjoy the highest quality feed when lactating.

​Our barns feature fans and sprinklers for cooling and fly control for added cow comfort.

Calves

Quality care starts with our calves. Individual calf hutches ensure each animal receives hands-on attention.

Heifers

Our heifer barns provide comfortable shelter for our heifers.

Dry Cows

​As their milk production slows, dry cows move into pens to rest, prepare for another calf and are then kept comfortable on bedded packs for pre-care and post care before re-joining as a milk cow.
