JOIN IN THE KAMI
is Tom and together we ail live on a
dairy farm in Belief ante, where we
raise registered Holsteins. Our
prefix is Ebon-Blanc. We milk 76
cows—an activity in which almost
all of us are involved in, in one way
or another.
Most of my activities off the farm
involve area children. I am a 4-H
leader. I'm involved with the PTA
in the school that my children
attend, andl’m also involved in the
CentrelClinton County Home and
Farm Safely Camp. Our whole
family is involved in county and
state Holstein activities as well as
exhibiting our animals at shows.
The children are involved in
various activities such as softball,
4-H clubs, and the county junior
Holstein club. This year, through
our church, our family will be
involved in the Ulster Project, in
which a teen from Ireland will be
staying with us for a month this
summer. In the spring of each year
we provide a farm tour of our farm
for kindergarten children who
attend my childrens' school. At the
end of the tour they are allowed to
make their own butler and take it
home. They are also given samples
of dairy desserts to try and they are
given the recipes to take home.
I believe an active family is a
happy family, as long as Mom gets
a break from all the chauffeuring
once in awhile. . . . and as long as
we all get to sit down to at least two
meals a day together as a family
and share our day's events.

June issues. My husband David

I live in the beautiful Shenan
doah Valley in Virginia. My hus
band works in field service for Val
ley of Virginia Milk Producers. We
have two boys, ages 7 and 5.
I grew up on a dairy farm in
Connecticut and feel closely con
nected to the dairy industry. I give
talks at my son’s preschool about
cows, milk, and dairy products. My
goal is to incorporate more agri
culture education into the schools.
We made this ice cream recipe
at preschool and it was very easy
for the children. I think children of
all ages will enjoy making their
own.
