HANKER - Lives on
Time to Investigate?? The most overrated conference in history, the B1G 10, had 9 teams invited to the NCAA basketball tourney, and only 1 has made it to the Sweet 16!! Meanwhile, our overlooked “bubble team”, the Syracuse Orange, rolls right in to the Sweet 16! Little wonder why the NCAA’s credibility continues to slide!

Celebrating Excellents on May 13th
We recently lost Hanker to cancer at nearly 9 years of age. When you buy a cow, you never know how big an impact she can make on your farm. Hanker renewed our faith of just how much impact one cow can make! She stood as our matriarch for combining conformation and performance. Everywhere in our pens you can see her influence and we feel that this story is just getting started. Use this family’s bulls with confidence! Thank you to Jeff Butler for suggesting we purchase Hanker, and thank you to our friends at Cookiecutter for breeding this breed-changing cow.

PASTEURIZATION The Australians have developed a milk pasteurization process using high air pressure and lower heat. It results in a 60-90 day shelf life, and increased nutrient retention. Take note. New techniques can bring on change for the better – Let’s make sure our coops/plants look to the future!
