The month of March has sure been special for us. In the midst of the sale prep, we attended our county dairy banquet and we were recognized as Distinguished Dairy Family. We owe a lot to Delaware County Fair and Dairy Promotors as it's really where a lot started for us.

We love supporting our county judging, quiz bowl, and livestock teams and shows. It's gratifying to see the boys take on different roles within the county to help contribute to the success.

Thank you for recognizing us!! It was a great night for the dairy industry to come together for a great meal, a fun auction, and to get away from the farm!!

This years Distinguished Dairy Family recipients are Tom & Sara Kruse.

These individuals are no strangers to the dairy industry. From raising their three boys on the farm, to running a boarding facility while also showing animals at the county and national levels, they sure stay busy! Thanks for representing our county!

Invoices & Transfers Update!

All transfers for animals have been sent to the breed offices, with most breeds already transferred and in the mail or available via email to make all the upcoming spring shows.

We are finishing up invoicing and appreciate your patience! If you have not already received an invoice, you should be seeing it in your email shortly.

Please reach out to individual breed offices about transfers and reach out to Sara for questions about invoices. Thank you!

Sale day is what we work toward the other 364 days of the year, and it means so much to our family.
We can’t thank everyone enough for the support of KCCK Springtime Showcase III!

A million-dollar day.
Records broken.
Strong averages across all breeds.
But more importantly: 𝘌𝘓𝘐𝘛𝘌 𝘘𝘜𝘈𝘓𝘐𝘛𝘠 from the first lot through the ring to the very last.

All made possible by consignors who offered their very best, bidders and buyers who showed up strong, and the best crew that kept it moving from start to finish. Thank you to everyone that supported the Springtime Showcase III - we truly could not have done it without you!
