Farmer Information:
I am currently a dairy farmer milking 150 head with a growing operation. I am the 4th generation to own and operate our farm and continue to work closely with my father. We are a small family owned and operated dairy farm.
We are in search of additional acreage to grow feed for our dairy cattle.
We meet with landowners to understand their desires for the land. We grow wheat, soybeans, and corn on some leased land. We also grow hay for our dry cows and heifers if that is the best fit for the land.
We work closely with a crop consultant and soil test every field we farm every year to ensure that it is kept it top condition for the landowner.
All operations on the land are completed by our own family and team members. We do not hire custom operators. This ensures that we care for your land with the highest level of respect.
Current Herd Description:
150 milking cows and 175 young stock and dry cows.
Agricultural Degrees / Certifications:
I have a complete B.S. and M.S in mechanical engineering from Penn State University. 2003.
