A42-Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April 26, 2003 Dairy Market Outlook (Continued from Page Al 6) The cooperative has gone a long way in the last seven years. After the fall of the Soviet Union, all the collective farms were bro ken up. The cheese plants no longer had a supply of milk. They approached lon to help set up collection stations in and around the village. I arrived just as one truckload of milk was arriving from a collection sta tion. They were un loading it into a cool ing tank. It takes about 4 hours to chill the milk for delivery. There was already a second truck loaded up with milk that was to be delivered to a nearby cheese plant. Milk is a key indus try in much of rural Moldova. It supplies the villagers with a steady source of hard currency. They can also use the milk to purchase supplies and Great Plains 7’ No-Till Drill For Rent Chester Co. 610/857-0355 Pizza Baking Oven 40x60," good cond. $6OO obo 717442-3959 Dave Sollenberger (above) is in charge of making the doors.

For several years we had them contracted out, but this year we geared up to “do it again”. This gives us a little better control over inventory and quality. Primarily, our doors are for our own Sollenberger Silos; however, we make several styles of doors. We make each of the doors out of Western Red Cedar, buying the grade closest to “A” which is clear of knots, and used in the furniture industry. Our doors are virtually free of knots, you the few you will see are small and tight. Door hardware for the Sollenberger doors is hot-dipped galvanized, and includes two %” steps. If you need silo doors, silo unloaders, or equipment, call Randy Gayman at 717-262-2908. www.sollenbergersilos.com since bread is an essential part of the Moldovan diet.
