Let the fun begin!

Yesterday was a very exciting day and busy day! Princess Kay of the Milky Way, Katie Miron, was able to join us for the day she helped kids learn how to milk a cow and read a story about how milk become the cheese on our pizzas. It was great to have her here interacting with the kids and teaching them things about the dairy industry.

Princess Kay assisted a child milking "Milkshake."


The dairy industry was in full swing yesterday. Not only did Princess Kay join us, but one of our cows calved last night. At 9 P.M we welcomed a healthy baby boy to the AgStar Miracle of Birth Center. We will be naming him tonight at his feeding at 5 P.M., so if you want to help us name him please be here by 5.
Not only did we have a cow calve, we had chicks and ducks hatching. Our first duck hatched yesterday morning as well. There were many visitors that enjoyed holding chicks, petting calves and lambs, and learning more about agriculture.
So please come on out today to view a sow giving birth, meet Princess Kay of the Milky Way, and take pictures with the baby animals!
