Is this how family farms turn corporate?? The cows are now having morning meetings at the water cooler without us! 😳😂
Any guesses what they’re discussing?
That’s a joke folks! In all seriousness, over 96% of farms in the U.S. are considered family farms according to USDA. It’s usually love that starts a farm. Love of the land, the livestock, the lifestyle, the people. Two people get married and decide to work together from sun up til sun down for minimal pay and guaranteed set backs and no days off. It’s not because they’re business partners, it’s because they’re married and love each other and this industry we call agriculture! And they’re often crazy enough to have big families and think the next generation will want to follow in their footsteps…hence the continuation of the family farm.
We’re all family here! Jerseys and the campers going spelunking included! 😀
