HERDS OF EXCELLENCE AWARD RECIPIENT
Our final honoree in Division 3 (10-99 Cows) is Doorco Holsteins, the Vandertie Family, residing in Brussels, WI.
Nestled between the shores of Lake Michigan and Green Bay, Doorco Holsteins- Vandertie's Doorco Farms is home to 40 cows. The Vandertie family has been recognized with the Progressive Breeders’ Registry (PBR) award for the past 51 years and takes pride in catering to their herd. This includes providing high quality forages and ensuring their cows are comfortable.
“Having records behind the cows, and showing people the dam, or better yet, sisters of a young sire that they’re looking at, is a benefit,” Dan says. “Sometimes we can show them three generations that are milking and people are just amazed.”
