Best on the Farm
Alfalfa grower Robert
Grossnickle of Woodsboro, MD
planted Medallion on his
"Johnsville Farms" located in
Frederick County in the spring
of 1990. Two years later, he
reports, "we've grown some
other alfalfas but we like
Medallion best. Medallion is
definitely a thicker stand and
very leafy clear down to the
ground. Because we know it's
our best quality, we always
feed it to the cows first. We
think it's the best value for the
cost of starting a new stand.
