A
free, self-guided tour starts in the milking parlor and ends with a
chance to pet the calves in outdoor nursery hutches. Call for current
milking times; they're at dawn, around noon, and at dusk. If you miss
seeing milking, you can watch an interesting nine-minute video on dairy
farming practices. A free booklet explains the basics of milk production
and nutrition. From Kalamazoo, take M-89 east through Gull Lake
and Richland and turn north on 40th Street. The dairy is 2 1/2 miles
north, past B Avenue |
