Experience the Brey Cycle Demo Farm

May 28, 2021 @ 1:30 pm - 4:00 pm

PART OF THE 2021 DOOR COUNTY FESTIVAL OF NATURE

See where milk comes from and how sustainability is behind every decision on this fourth-generation family farm. Learn about modern dairy farming and how milk is sustainably produced, from the crops to the cows. Get up close with the animals as you learn about the life of a calf through becoming a member of the milking herd. We’ll also show you some of the land we use to grow crops to feed our animals and talk about the conservation practices used. Cycle Farm is part of the Door-Kewanee Demonstration Farm network, testing various innovative practices to help increase organic matter, improve soil health, and reduce soil erosion and nutrient loss. Suitable for ages 16 and up.
