I enjoy cooking and baking,
especially with dairy products. In
fact, I can’t seem to make a meal
without using milk or milk
products!
We live on a 140-acre dairy
farm and milk 34 cows and raise
our own replacement heifers.
It’s encouraging to see the
children grown in their responsi
bilties in caring for the animals,
helping with the fieldwork, and at
the same time taldng pride in what
is getting accomplished in making
our farm a better place to live. We
are thankful to God for being able
to contribute in our own small way
to the farming industry.
