Another Successful Barn Dance!

Thanks to everyone who helped make this year’s Partnering for Progress annual barn dance a success at our farm! This annual event supports Lakeshore Natural Resource Partnership, Gathering Waters, and the Wisconsin School for Beginning Dairy and Livestock Farmers. A big thanks to the band Copper Box for keeping the dance floor hoppin’ all evening! Here’s a video of the band with special guest Justin Palm!

2017 Super Cub Fly In on the farm

We had a wonderful time hosting folks from the 2017 New Holstein Super Cub Fly In this past weekend! Thank you to all the Supercub.org pilots, their families and friends, and to our community members for visiting our farm! It was an honor to host you all. Our 97-year-old grandmother, Margret, the farm matriarch, especially enjoyed watching the planes land in our pastures. Maybe by next year’s fly in Robert Klessig will have made those bumper stickers that say, “Real pilots have cow manure on their wheels”!
