walk-le holsteins dairy farm印象

We visited with a three year old and a one year old. The girls helped to feed the baby calves and give them bottles. The girls loved seeing the cows! We walked into the cow barn where the cows eat, and we watched some cows being milked. You will also learn about the crops that are grown on the farm and what the cows eat each day. This would be a great tour for school groups to learn about agriculture and how farmers are essential in our community.

We went blindly into this tour, having just communicated breifly with Michelle via email and phone, and knowing nothing else about the farm. It was everything we expected and more. Several members of the family joined us on the tour at various times and added to the information we were given. Feeding the calves was the highlight for adults and children alike. We saw cows in all different areas of the farm, including during a milking. The family was extremely accomodating and willing to answer any and every question. There was plenty of room for the kids to run around as the adults asked questions. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone in the area. Should we be visiting the area again, we will definitely go back. The $5 fee was well worth it as adults and children all got 'goodie' bags to take home.

During our last camping trip we went to the Walk-Le Holsteins Dairy Farm. We were warmly greeted by the Walker family. They gave us a very cool tour of their working dairy farm. We got to mix the "baby" formula the calves, give them their food, and feed them with bottles. We then went to their large barn and learned about how they keep their barns and cows clean, cool, and feed. We also got to see some of the large machinery they use of the farm for spreading fertilzer and mixing food for the animals. They showed us the ingredients of their food and how they mix it together. They showed us the pregant cow area for mama's about to give birth. Lastly they showed us how they milked the cows. Very fun and informative. Plus the Walker family was so down to earth, so willing to answer questions and share about their lives as a dairy farmers. Definetely worthwhile!
