DAIRY FARMERS!

Chris HeimThe Heim familyLewiston, Minn. Winona County 330 cowsWhen did you host your June Dairy Month event and what type of event was it? How many peo-ple attended? We hosted a dairy night on the farm on June 22 put on by the Winona Chamber of Commerce. About 1,300

people were served a meal, but we are guessing some people didnt eat so the total number of people who attended the event was more than likely higher than that. The meal was pulled pork with baked beans, and chocolate and white milk.Why did you host? They asked us, and we thought it would be fun and educational. What is the process of preparing to host this event?We had a meeting once a month for a year before the event. The last month we had a meeting once a week. Right before the night on the farm, we got the farm looking nice and clean. Its clean most of the time anyway, but theres always something to pick up. We lled in the pot holes in the driveway and removed the cement blocks where the silos were. We did extra cleaning and washed the oor of the shop where the food was served. What was the highlight of the day? Just having all the people here. The hayrides were a big hit. It was great to see the day come together after all the work and effort from the people who planned it. Along with our family, the people from the chamber and a lot of volunteers helped make it happen. There were lots of volunteers who helped us that night. They parked cars, drove people in from their cars, cleaned tables after people ate and helped families carry their plates to the tables. The Lewiston FFA Chapter also had a petting zoo. People were able to walk into the parlor to see where we milk. We werent milking the cows while people were here (because it wasnt milking time) but we had a TV with a video of milking play-ing in the shed where people ate. There was always a crowd of people around it watching. What was your favorite aspect of your dairy event?I liked that we were able to show people about the farm and educate them about where their milk comes from. Farming is a big part of Winona County, so it was good to show that to people. It was also fun to see all the vendors who came. There were three equip-ment dealers, one dairy equipment company and our nutritionist here to show people their part of farming.Tell us about your farm. I am the fourth generation here. The farm started in 1941. My wife, Amanda, and I farm together with my parents, Bruce and Jodi. We have 16 employees who help us get the chores done and milk our 330 cows three times a day. We milk at 3:30 a.m., 11 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. in a double-6 step-up parlor. About 240 of our cows are housed in a sand bedded freestall barn while the rest are in a compost barn. We farm 400 acres of corn and alfalfa.

Dairy Month event?
