Meet Lonnie Fenendael of El-Na Farms LLC!
Located just outside Algoma, Wisconsin, El-Na Farms is a sixth-generation dairy farm with more than 160 years of family history. Lonnie works alongside Barry and Shane to manage the farm’s daily operations.
“We take great pride in knowing we help feed a lot of people,” Lonnie says. The team combines tradition with modern technology to support cow comfort, efficient farming, and environmental stewardship.
Their milk ships to BelGioioso Cheese and Land O'Lakes, where it’s turned into world-class cheese and butter enjoyed across Wisconsin and beyond.
In 2025, El-Na Farms proudly hosted Breakfast on the Farm, opening their doors to thousands of visitors for a firsthand look at Wisconsin dairy in action. They plan on hosting again in 2026!
