I can’t believe we’re already at the end of the year. Looking back, 2016 has been a great year. It really flew by quickly.
We didn’t have any major building projects going on in 2016. It was a year of maintaining what we have and planning for the future. We stayed involved in the community, hosting Sheboygan County’s Breakfast on the Farm and supporting the Wisconsin Agricultural Education Center; we participated in the networking events that we really enjoy including World Dairy Expo, Professional Dairy Producers of Wisconsin events and working with the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board; and we celebrated 163 years of farming in Sheboygan County.
The milk price in 2016 could have been better, but Mother Nature made up for it. We had a great growing year, which resulted in one of the best years we’ve ever had for crop yields.
This is the time of year to look back, reflect and be grateful for all we have. We have a great team of people, both employees and consultants, that help us make the best decisions for our farm and keep everything running smoothly. We have healthy Wisconsin soil that allows us to grow the crops we need to feed our cattle. And we have opportunities to share our love of agriculture with people not only in our area, but across the state, country and world.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this year great.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, from all of us at Majestic Crossing Dairy!
