Day 4 was a busy one!
These kids are great barn help! They got to visit Lucy from Dakin Dairy AG Experience and experience hand milking her, and watching the milking process up close and personal. Of course we have to beat the heat with the water slides!

Day 2 of summer camp. The kids visited the commodity feed barn, always a fun spot to play on the cottonseed and citrus pulp, they made bird feeders and searched for shark teeth! It was a great day! 🖤🤍

Dairy farming is 365. The cows need fed, cared for, and milked, the daily tasks don't change because of bad weather, the weekend, or because its a holiday. Whether it's feeding cows, milking cows, or bottling milk, its a labor of love. We are proud to be a part of the 2% that feed the country. If you haven't tried any of our Dakin milk, or cheese products stop by the Dakin Moofé for a sample!
