The dairy is owned and operated by Duane and Derek Ducat, and Dale Bogart.
“My dad bought the farm in 1984 and we were milking 70 cows back then,” explained Derek.
The family worked to expand the farm in small steps, working up to milking 120 cows in a stanchion barn. The family also grows crops and does custom work on the side. They wanted to grow and expand their dairy by making conservation-minded decisions along the way.
Through the custom work the family was completing on neighboring farms, they met Dale Bogart.
“In talking with Dale, who lived nearby, we both wanted to expand and do similar things on our farms,” added Derek.
