Though we might not always be set up to succeed, dairy farmers overcome challenges every day to care for our animals and our business

We look for the sweet spot, but extremes in prices and weather swing dairy farms up and down

These creatures reflect the changing of the seasons on our farm

Farmers have just as much responsibility, if not more, to make sure everyone arrives home safely

A farming legacy is honorable and desirable but not without challenges

If you find yourself with a negative review on Google, there are ways to redeem your image

When we make adjustments on the farm, some are more successful than others, but we are continually learning and improving the herd

Taking our time is necessary on the farm but also teaches valuable lessons

Isolating ourselves does no good to reach the people consuming our products

Discussions about a farm’s transition should be intentional with all vested parties at the table

“They look like corporate, professional people wearing suits,” my friend exclaimed as I was talking to her about the Alliance’s work monitoring animal rights extremism

Cows like routine just like humans do

A tragedy this weekend reminds us of the importance of being prepared

March may be a crazy month, but knowing that our heifers are safe and that folks have resources to ask about agriculture makes it all worth the time

Cows have personalities with each other just like we do

Constant changes in our weather make it more important for us to do what we can to keep our animals healthy

They may not be glamorous, but we can share what we love about our roles in agriculture to attract others

The cold allows us to prepare for a new season ahead
